ASUS P8P67 Motherboard Review
Just Cause 2
The orders are simple: hunt down and execute a rogue agent that has stolen top-secret intelligence and millions in Agency cash. Each of Rico’s assignments can be tackled by land, sea or air with more than 100 vehicles including tactical jeeps, attack helicopters and jet fighters. As the Agency’s best, Rico can execute a range of breathtaking new stunts, utilizing his trademark parachute and upgraded grapple to reach any location in Panau, a 400 square mile island of white sand beaches, scorching deserts and snow-capped peaks.
The C2Q/X48 rig went back to winning ways with Just Cause 2 and completely trounced the newcomer. I have yet to discover why there is such a large gap between them but after testing and retesting, the numbers don’t seem to lie.
Love the EFI bios!
Why such dramatic differences with certain games? Sometimes this new P67 board wins by nearly 100% over the older Core2 Q9550 platform, but the older platform wins by even larger margins in older games?!?
An interesting find, thanks Leon Hyman. It’s baffling and also a bit disappointing.
WTH happened with 2600k in several gaming tests??
I presume it’s not MSI, so what’s happening with Intel chipsets lately?
I meant it’s not ASUS’s fault xD
