3D Mark loves the increased performance of our $1000 system’s overclock.

With anti-aliasing and anisotropic filtering enabled, 3D Mark really shows off the benefits of our current build’s SLI graphics set. Overclocking provides a significant boost to already impressive performance.

PC Mark’s system test still puts the former quad-core build of March on top.

PC Mark’s CPU test appears to be unaffected by the additional cores of the March build, instead favoring the added speed of our current $1000 PC.

Overclocking our RAM resulted in an impressive gain in PC Mark’s memory test.
