AOpen AK79D-400 Max Motherboard Review
AOpen AK79D-400 Max Motherboard Review  - PCSTATS
The Ultra name may be more symbolic than descriptive, but I would expect a little extra performance over stock nForce 2 chipsets at the very least...

Benchmarks: PCMark2002, 3DMark2001SE

PCMark 2002 Source: Futuremark

PCMark can be used on desktop PC's, Laptops and even Workstations and tests everyday computing from home to office usage. PCMark specifically stresses the CPU, memory subsystem, graphics subsystem, hard drives, WindowsXP GUI (if WinXP is used), video performance and even laptop batteries.

PCMark2002 Benchmark Results

Memory

1. 8RGA+ - 166/333 5826

3. AK79D-400 Max - 166/333 5843
4. AK79D-400 Max - 223/446 6774

As we saw with Sandra, CPU scores stay about the same because the processor is clocked around the same speed. Memory gets a very healthy boost from overclocking though.

By combining DirectX8 support with completely new graphics, it continues to provide good overall system benchmarks. 3DMark2001 SE has been created in cooperation with the major 3D accelerator and processor manufacturers to provide a reliable set of diagnostic tools. The suite demonstrates 3D gaming performance by using real-world gaming technology to test a system's true performance abilities. Tests include: DirectX8 Vertex Shaders, Pixel Shaders and Point Sprites, DOT3 and Environment Mapped Bump Mapping, support for Full Scene Anti-aliasing and Texture Compression and two game tests using Ipion real-time physics. Higher 3DMark scores denote better performance.

3DMark2001 SE Benchmark Results
Processor 3DMarks Ranking
1. 8RGA+ - 166/333 15973
2. KX400-8XV Pro - 166/333 14668
3. AK79D-400 Max - 166/333 15657
4. AK79D-400 Max - 223/446 16250

In 3DMark at stock speeds the AK79D-400 Max is slightly slower. Overclocked, and we can break 16k.
