Once again the Gigabyte GA-G1975X comes up slightly slower than the EPoX and Asus. It’s interesting to see the EPoX NF4 motherboard with slower RAM timings beat the G1975X. What is also surprising is the Asus 955X system coming out on top despite being identically configured (timings, frequencies, etc.).

* Memory @ 800MHz, 4-4-4-17-2T. The Gigabyte GA-G1975X and Asus P5WD2 @ 800 MHz, 4-4-4-15-1T.
** Memory @ 600MHz, 4-4-4-12-2T.
