Supermicro X11SRA LGA2066 C422 Motherboard Review

System Performance

We do not use a powerful and dedicated graphics card in this system. Instead, we try to test the motherboard performance as pure as possible. We still chose to include the tests for comparison reasons.

GeekBench 4

PerformanceTest 8.0

PerformanceTest is a fast, easy to use software benchmarking tool that allows everybody to quickly assess the performance of their PC and compare it to a list of standard ‘baseline’ computer systems. With it, you can compare the performance of your machine, measure the effect of configuration changes and upgrades, and make objective, independent measurements on which to base your purchasing decision.

SPECwpc 1.2

SPECwpc is the first benchmark to measure all key aspects of workstation performance based on diverse professional applications. The latest version is SPECwpc V1.2 (introduced on June 3, 2015), which extends performance measurement from physical to virtualised workstations. Results from SPECwpc V1.2 are comparable to those from SPEC V1.0.4, but not to any version before that.

More than 30 workloads are included in SPECwpc V1.2 to test CPU, graphics, I/O and memory bandwidth. The tests are divided into the application categories listed below. Individual scores are generated for each test, and a composite score for each category is generated based on a reference machine, yielding a “bigger is better” result. The reference machine has the following configuration: x3430 processor, 8GB (4x2GB) memory, V4800 graphics, and SATA 7.2k rpm hard disk drive.
