7-Zip:
7-Zip is a compression program, much like WinRAR. It features a built-in test, which gives a score for compression and decompression.
Both the compression and decompression values were very good across all the boards, but at stock there was no clear winner in terms for performance. This isn't terribly surprising as we are dealing with the same chipset and identical components in each test system. However, once overclocked there was a slight difference in performance with each board being aligned in order of the frequency increase.
Handbrake:
HandBrake is an application that converts sound and video files to other formats. It makes use the many available threads so it can exploit the processor to its full potential.
HandBrake is another test that had all the boards performing nearly even at stock. The ASUS boards did have the best overall performance at stock and again the higher frequency once overclocked yields the best results.
Also a better cooler would be needed if you wanted to pit extreme boards, you'd need to see what you could max out at and not cap to 1.375. Now that would be a round up that the rampage 3 I wouldn't mind to see thrown in too. Of course though this wouldn't be a review then, it would be an over clocking contest lol. I don't think a Big Bang would stretch the voltage much more for his cpu if any.
I was able to push the p6x58D-Premium to 21*228bclk before it was wigging on me. Might be able to get that higher too.
