MSI MEG Z390 ACE Synthetic Benchmark Results
CINEBENCH “is a real-world cross platform test suite that evaluates your computer’s performance capabilities. CINEBENCH is based on MAXON’s award-winning animation software CINEMA 4D, which is used extensively by studios and production houses worldwide for 3D content creation. MAXON software has been used in blockbuster movies such as Iron Man 3, Oblivion, Life of Pi or Prometheus and many more.”
Above is the benchmark we got with Cinebench. The 1420 score is the non overclocked score, while the 1642 is the score we got after overclocking the CPU to 5GHz.
AIDA64 Engineer “is a streamlined Windows diagnostic and benchmarking software for engineers. AIDA64 Engineer provides a wide range of features to assist in overclocking, hardware error diagnosis, stress testing, and sensor monitoring. It has unique capabilities to assess the performance of the processor, system memory, and disk drives. AIDA64 is compatible with all current 32-bit and 64-bit Microsoft Windows operating systems, including Windows 8.1 Update 1 and Windows Server 2012 R2 Update 1.”
The membench result above is the XMP speed of the Corsair Vengeance RGB PRO DDR4, running at 3000MHz. On the previous page, I was able to overclocked the memory to 3600MHz with the MEG Z390 ACE motherboard. The read speed went up to around 49,200 MB/s, write speed to 20,400 MB/s and copy speed to 44,100 MB/s after overclocking.
PCMark 8 Creative benchmark “includes workloads typical of enthusiasts and professionals who work with media and entertainment content. With more demanding requirements than the Home benchmark, this benchmark is suitable for mid-range computer systems. PCMark 8 Creative includes web browsing, photo editing, video editing, group video chat, media transcoding, and gaming workloads.”
DPC Latency Checker “is a Windows tool that analyses the capabilities of a computer system to handle real-time data streams properly. It may help to find the cause for interruptions in real-time audio and video streams, also known as drop-outs.”
The MSI MEG Z390 ACE has a good audio quality output. It can drive all my headphones, including the MrSpeakers Ether Flow and IEMs directly from the rear audio output without any problems. Audio quality is almost close compared to a dedicated sound card like the Sound BlasterX AE-5, minus the exclusive features of the AE-5 of course. But generally speaking, I don’t think most users would have a problem with its audio quality.
