AOpen AK86-L Motherboard Review - Testing the AK86-L
(Page 4 of 10 )
- AMD Athlon 64 3200+
- AOpen AK86-L
- Albatron K8X800 Pro II
- Soyo CK8 Dragon Plus
- Chaintech ZNF3-250 (only one DIMM)
- Kingston Hyper X 3000 (2*512MB)
- 2x80GB Hitachi 7K250 HD's in 64k stripe RAID 0 (VIA onboard Controller)
- Radeon 8500 LE
For this review, we gave this thing a run through a solid test suite:
- Adobe After Effects
- POV-Ray
- STARS CDF Solver
- Super Pi
- SPECViewPerf 7.1.1
- 3DMark 2k1SE
- Comanche4
- Unreal Tournament 2K3
- WinRAR
- LAME MP3 Encoding
Adobe After Effects
There are two parts to this benchmark. The first computation is mainly CPU based, while the second is more system oriented. For more information, please go to Media Motion. As can be seen, the P4 system is still the one to be using for multi-threaded media applications like After Effects. The AK86-L performs similarly to all the other A64 boards other than the Chaintech, which falls behind due to its ability to perform with only one stick of memory.
