ASUS P8Z68 V PRO (Intel Z68 chipset) review

by Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 05/11/2011 10:51 AM | source: | 0 comment(s)

Intel is closing a gap with the Z68 chipset. A chipset that has the full feature set of BOTH the H67 and P67 chipsets and then it also has a little surprise in store. With the Z68 Intel also introduces Intel Smart Response Technology, which allows you to use a SSD to cache a large volume HDD, it's a bit of a hybrid mode, a symbiosis of the two to gain on static storage performance. Next to that most Z68 motherboards will get the ability to switch in-between the processor IGP and a dedicated graphics card. That means you could use the Sandy Bridge IGP for seriously fast transcoding, yet once you want to play a game your dedicated graphics card, that 3D accelerated solution will kick in. Pretty cool stuff, in theory.

In this 24 page review we'll not just look at the motherboard, but also look at and test Intel's SSD cache technology called Smart Response Technology. Next to that we'll peek at the all new Lucid Virtu mode.
