Performance Analysis
All the boards perform within 4% of each other, showing the maturity of the AMD 760 chipset. Worth noting is that the DFI AK76-SN trailed the pack in all our tests. On the other hand, we can see that the ABIT KG7-RAID performs very well, topping all the charts on all our tests.
