Asus P5NSLI: NVIDIA nForce 570 Intel Edition
For this next batch of tests, we ran Kribibench v1.1, a 3D rendering benchmark produced by the folks at Adept Development. Kribibench is an SSE aware software renderer where a 3D model is rendered and animated by the host CPU, and the average frame rate is reported.

We used two of the included models with this benchmark: a "Sponge Explode" model consisting of over 19.2 million polygons and the test suite's "Ultra" model that is comprised of over 16 billion polys.
Once again, the performance deltas separating the "fastest" from the "slowest" motherboards in these tests were quite small, but technically speaking the nForce chipset based boards posted the highest scores. While rendering both models, the P5N32-SLI SE put up the highest framerate, followed closely behind by the P5NSLI. The 975X Express and P965 hung right alongside the nForce boards, but the P5N32-SLI and P5NSLI were slightly faster overall.
