Gaming Tests
3DMark Vantage
A reliable and popular benchmark, 3DMark Vantage can provide a good insight into overall gaming performance of a system.
Crysis Warhead
One of the most visually impressive games ever built, Crysis Warhead also has an incredibly realistic physics and simulation engine.
Far Cry 2
Far Cry 2 pairs impressive visuals with a truly interactive and destructible environment.
PC gaming is another key aspect to evaluate when looking to purchase a small form factor motherboard. The H55N-USB3 recorded the lowest score of all the motherboards we tested in 3DMark Vantage, but made up for it in our Crysis Warhead and Far Cry 2 low-resolution testing. While the synthetic benchmark scores are important, I tend to put more stock into the true game play scores. When reviewing how it performed it game, it was on par with the larger motherboards sporting the same chipset and processor.
This was the worst board I
This was the worst board I ever had. Chipset kept overheating in a well ventilated case, causing system to shut down randomly. A bit of online research found that this happened to many other buyers of this case.
AVOID this board at all costs.
