File Compression & Encryption:

Website: WinRAR

We used the Intel X25-M SSD to provide a uniform performance base between all the boards tested in file compression and decompression.

Compression performance for the Asus is very good, as it generates a particular lead in large file compression when overclocked compared to the Gigabyte 785G board that also has four cores unlocked. In small file compression the Asus board is still ahead, but the difference is now only slight.

File Decompression & Decryption:

The two RAR archives created during the compression and encryption tests were then decompressed and decrypted.

The Asus board offers more or less the same performance as the other AMD boards in both large and small file decompression testing.
