Asus Sabertooth P67 Motherboard Review

As with all of our reviews, we pit the default speed system against the overclocked one in a head-to-head byte match.  The effective overclock for these tests is 4.7GHz @ 47x.  The results are show below.

Overclocking the Sandy Bridge architecture is a little different from what we are accustomed to, in fact the process reminds us of the old days when the only option was to hack the system to adjust the multiplier or hotwire the system clock to raise the frequency.  In doing so there was also a good chance your attached devices would stop working.

We were able to run our 2600K at 4.7Ghz without too much trouble which is one thing we really like about Asus motherboards, they are extremely stable when you overclock assuming you keep to the basics.

By the looks of it the quick system tweak really woke the board up!
