The memory performance of the MSI 770X is still slightly better than the Asus 785G board, despite both using a Zotac GeForce GTX 260 AMP! graphics card so no bandwidth is lost using the IGP. When overclocked, the MSI has a slightly lower latency and marginally better performance.

The Sisoft Sandra results say much the same thing as the Everest - overclocked, the MSI is just that much better.
