Intel P35 Express Comparison: ASUS & Gigabyte
PCMark05 CPU & Memory Benchmarks

Unlike our SANDRA results, the PC Mark 2005 scores don't show much of a difference between the two boards. Although the ASUS P5K3 Deluxe comes in first, it does so just barely. The difference is certainly small enough to be negligible.

"The Memory test suite is a collection of tests that isolate the performance of the memory subsystem. The memory subsystem consists of various devices on the PC. This includes the main memory, the CPU internal cache (known as the L1 cache) and the external cache (known as the L2 cache). As it is difficult to find applications that only stress the memory, we explicitly developed a set of tests geared for this purpose. The tests are written in C++ and assembly. They include: Reading data blocks from memory, Writing data blocks to memory performing copy operations on data blocks, random access to data items and latency testing." - Courtesy FutureMark Corp.
As with the CPU test, the two boards are neck and neck when it comes to memory performance. The P5K3 Deluxe wins again but just like with the CPU test, the P35T-DQ6 only lost by a hair.
