X58A-UD9 vs. Rampage III Extreme, powered by i7 980X - whose crown?

Let’s jump to 3D programs, starting with two apps that are constant participants in our tests. As a reminder, the configuration subsystem was provided by two GeForce GTX 480s.

We can observe practically the same as on the previous page, with the difference that the detectable difference between the two motherboards became even smaller. With tuning, it was possible to add a few more important percentages to the scores here as well.

Let's see what's going on in the games!

We couldn't find anything surprising, the job in the game programs is also extremely tight, with some FPS differences occurring only in some places, maybe as if the Rampage III Extreme is a hair faster. Under AvP, the system crashes (SLI doesn't work), even tuning doesn't help, but in the other three titles, the i4 7X, which rumbles at 980 GHz, can add a significant plus to the averaged FPS, almost surprisingly in the case of Crysis.
