Results - PCMark 7
From the overall PCMark 7 results, the ASRock Z77 OC Formula board has been relegated to the ranks of the average performers of the mainstream Intel Z77 boards. Although its score trailed the leading ASUS P8Z77-V board by a mere 2.4%, its overall performance was more on par with the mainstream boards, rather than the high-end ones. Its only consolation was that it came slightly ahead of its own Z77 Extreme 6 board.
Results - SPECviewperf 9.0
The ASRock board also tured in an expected average performance here, only managing to outclass the other mainstream ASRock Z77 board.
