Power consumption is measured using everything on the test bench except the GPU. This gives a more accurate reading of the motherboard and CPUs power usage. To load the CPU up to 100%, Prime95 is used. This is done by using the torture test feature. The maximum reading is recorded.
Today we take a look at the ASRock Z97 Extreme4. Can its performance live up to it's name or will it fail horribly and leave us devastated? Come find out...
Thank you for all the excellent reviews. Just one thing: It would be excellent if you could use the correct abbreviation for gigabits per second, i.e. Gbps, as opposed to GBs. GB is the abbreviation for gigabyte, and I’m pretty sure even Ultra M.2 can’t do 32 gigabytes per second!
