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.

Don't be alarmed that running SLI lowers overall framerates. At this resolution/setting, the system is mainly CPU limited anyway. The Asus P5N32-E SLI Plus comes in first here with 265.31 fps when running with a single 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 results again put the Asus P5N32-E SLI Plus near the top of this reference list. The motherboard will definitely not hold your system back when you're gaming, that much is for sure.
