Testing (continued):

Everest Ultimate Edition 5.30.1900:

Everest Ultimate Edition provides four memory specific benchmarks; including read speed (in MB/s), write speed (in MB/s), copy speed (in MB/s), and latency (in ns). Higher values are better for read, write, and copy, while lower values are better for latency.

The first graph shows the read results, where the ASUS board holds the slightest of leads on the Gigabyte board at the same speed. Despite the memory only being overclocked by a few MHz, the overall processor speed increase helps the read results increase quite a bit.



The write results are shown below, and comparing apples to apples shows there isn't much of a difference.



The results for the copy portion of the test echo what we saw with the write results.



And finally, we have the latency test results. It takes that significant overclock to get the memory's latency on the ASUS board down below what the Gigabyte board could do at stock speeds.
