A score of 13954 in 3DMark 06 is low, considering a GTX470 is installed... there's no way around this. The AMD A8-3850 CPU is simply not the quickest chip in the bundle, to put it plainly.

IGP Motherboard Benchmarks

Since the Biostar TA75M+ motherboard features an on-board HDMI/DVI/analog video ports PCSTATS includes a full set of IGP benchmarks for the AMD Radeon HD 6550D graphics core compared to several other AMD and Intel IGP graphics solutions. It's worthwhile to see IGPs compared against themselves to truly discover all that these mainstream integrated graphics motherboards have to offer.

PCSTATS will be running through these pretty quickly since the numbers are self explanatory. Let's begin with the DX11 benchmarks.
