A bit of a note first. There is a need to point out that this is a new chipset only. The new 9-series motherboards are intended to be the foundation of the upcoming Haswell refresh and Broadwell processors that will arrive after this motherboard has launched. That said, this launch is essentially an extension of the Haswell range and we don’t expect any performance gains. In the interest of fairness, we will be presenting the data here for your reference only and will update accordingly when new data is gathered, either from other boards or the new processors.
