<p><span style="font-size: small;"> Our initial tests with the ASRock A75 Extreme6 were based on a pre-release model, and shown in our preview. At that point, the board design was not finalized and the BIOS was still quite raw, but the performance was essentially complete.&nbsp; However, now in my grasp is the full release version of the Extreme6.&nbsp; Alongside this standard motherboard review, and testing to see whether it's worth the $150 asking price, we're also going to take a good look at the overclocking features of the Desktop Llano chipset.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: small;"> I've essentially run our motherboard test suite on two versions of this board now, and having recently played with Cougar Point and AMD Fusion (review to come), it slots nicely in the middle in most aspects - especially CPU power.&nbsp; We're not seeing anything special here with Desktop Llano - as Anand pointed out, in the region of Phenom II X4 performance.&nbsp; For the integrated GPU, it's a different matter, with up to 2x the performance of the highest version of Intel's integrated graphic solutions of the Sandy Bridge second generation Core series.&nbsp; Both of these will come in the form of results I will look at later.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: small;"><a target="_blank" href="http://www.anandtech.com/show/4478/asrock-a75-extreme6-review-and-desktop-llano-overclocking">Read more...</a><br /> </span></p>
