ECS PN2 SLI2+ Extreme Motherboard Review

Processing Performance

We measured processing performance using PCMark05 Professional program. PCMark05 Professional measures the system performance by running several tests. The System batch, which was the one we used, performs the following tests: HDD XP Startup, Physics and 3D, 2D Transparent Window, 3D Pixel Shader, Web Page Rendering, File Decryption, 2D Graphics Memory – 64 lines, HDD General Usage and three multithreading tests. The results are given in a PCMark05 specific unit.

Here all motherboards achieved similar results, the only performance difference was against Intel D975XBX2, where ECS P2N SLI2+ was 4.33% faster than this motherboard from Intel when using DDR2-800 memories (using DDR2-1066 memories this difference increased to 5.72%, but this is an unfair comparison as D975XBX2 does not support DDR2-1066).
