Motherboard Benchmarks: FarCry, Doom 3

CryTek FarCry 1.33 Source: Ubisoft

Real-time editing, bump mapping, static lights, network system, integrated physics system, shaders, shadows, and a dynamic music system are just some of the state of-the-art features that the CryENGINE offers. The game was set to Ultra quality and the Ubisoft's Regulator demo was run.

FarCry framerates are nice and high. You can turn the Asus M2N32 WS Professional motherboard into a gaming machine by simply installing a good videocard.

ID Software Doom 3 1.3 Source: id Software

Doom 3 takes advantage of the latest videocard technology and pushes the processing power of the CPU to its absolute limit. At its highest setting, Ultra quality, texture sizes pass the 500MB mark which means even tomorrow's videocards will have a hard time running everything. The frame rates in the game itself are locked at 60 fps so anything above that point is wasted. Each test is run three times with the third run being recorded.

Doom 3 framerates hover around 145FPS, the Asus M2N32 WS Professional handles no better or no worse than the reference boards here. Thanks to AMD integrating the memory controller onto the processor, all platforms perform very consistently.
