Asus P8Z77-V LX2 Motherboard Review

With its emergence as the new standard for high-speed portable devices, USB 3.0 performance on a modern motherboard needs to be good to ensure that data transferral bottlenecks aren't created.

We tested USB 3.0 performance using an ADATA SP300 SSD connected to an Icy Box IB-223StU3 USB 3.0 enclosure. ATTO was the benchmark used.

  1. good deal but I like the gigabyte UD3, same price, sliglthy better looking IMO

  2. These are great boards for a cheap, powerful system, but I wonder about the reliability due to the power design on the PCB

  3. Great & cheap mobo… Im a lucky owner 🙂

    Theres a bad information on page 3 in Motherboard slots and connectors:

    1 x 8-pin ATX 12V Power connector(s) – on mobo is only a 4-pin connector…
