ASRock Fatal1ty H170 Performance/Hyper (LGA-1151) Motherboard Review

3DMark Professional Edition

We would like to thank Futuremark for providing the 3DMark software for use in this testing.

3DMark is arguably the most popular graphics card benchmarking software known to the world. For more than a decade, users have been using the software made by Futuremark to make and break world records and and to also test overclocks. The latest version simply known as 3DMark includes several tests for DirectX 9, 10, 11 and 12 hardware. This version also supports cross-platform benchmarking including smartphones and tablets (Android and iOS) this time around. We used the Time Spy, Fire Strike Ultra, Sky Diver, Cloud Gate, and Ice Storm Extreme benchmarks (all at default settings). I will let the numbers do the talking.

Final Fantasy XIV: Heavensward

Final Fantasy has been around for a very, very long time. The beloved RPG franchise has been seen as the most successful video game RPG series of all time. The latest MMO flavor, Final Fantasy XIV, has some unprecedented visual quality, a full range of character variety, as well as some pretty special magical effects. We tested this game using the free downloadable benchmark with the default Maximum preset. The result is a beautiful game with an ultra-smooth frame rate and an Extremely High branded score.

What memory kits you’ve test?! can you test some 2800 mhz, with xmp?
there is a list in asrock’s website that has all compatible non z ddr4 oc modules!

I was planning to buy this for overclock, I will have a non K CPU. Could be a good option.

i actually bought the board and did what you hadnt!
overclocking !!!
i can say it super easy, you only change bclk and cpu volt!
i got my g3900 celeron to 4480 mhz stable !
but ddr4 is another story, xmp wont load, and you cannot set a mhz value , bclk doesnot increase dram speed , so you’ve left with only asrocks non – z ddr4 oc! which is an option to set memory, to
comfort (no oc stock 2133)
sport (some oc , though supposed to be stable)
sport +
i have trident z 2800 2×8 gb and it work at a certain degree , i got the ram in sport + to run at 2520 mhz
but cpu could only be overclocket to 3300 mhz, after that , overcloking the ram , and the system wont boot at all, so i left ddr4 oc , focused only in the cpu to achive 4480 mhz at 1.36 v core ….
its free performance after all!!! but if it where in an z170 board , you could have also oced the ram using xmp or simple ram overclocking and not that comfort/sport+ asrocks has on h170 boards….
overall the results are pretty amazing! but i suggest getting a z170 with SKY OC bios and run both cpu and dram overclocks!
