CPU Performance Results

SuperPi

Super Pi serves as our memory-focused benchmark, being highly single-threaded. Given the limited memory scaling offered, we didn't expect very much, but the ECS A75F-A did manage to best the Biostar AMD A75 product.

wPrime

wPrime served as a role reversal, with the Biostar board up on top, but the ECS A75F-A still manages to best the Gigabyte AMD A75 board.

WinRAR

A recent addition to our motherboard benchmarking suite is the built-in benchmark that is part of the WinRAR software suite. Here we find the ECS A75F-A at the very bottom of the pile, which to us is a bit curious considering the other results, but it is still last place.

AIDA64

We employed AIDA64's memory bench to highlight memory bandwidth. We isolate the write performance metric as it serves as a good indicator of overall memory performance. Here the Biostar and ECS products are neck and neck, with a just a 5 MB/second difference, which is within the margin of error for this particular benchmark.

HandBrake Encoding

Handbrake is used for encoding testing, where we perform a real-world test by encoding a video file to another format. The ECS A75F-A board won out again here in the list of AMD A75 products. Good job, ECS!!

CineBench Encoding

In Cinebench, all the AMD A75-based products are really close together. Even though the other CPU Performance benchmarks had the scores go this way or that, we saw exactly what we expected from the ECS A75F-A; good, consistent performance, but nothing jaw dropping.
