In recent times, choosing a motherboard cannot be completely determined by a Winstone score. Now, many boards come within one Winstone point of each other and therefore the need to benchmark boards against each other falls. Therefore you shouldn't base your decision entirely on the benchmarks you see here, but also on the technical features and advantages of this particular board, seeing as that will probably make the greatest difference in your overall experience.

The AOpen AX5T is a very solid performer in all categories, it is on par with most other TX based motherboards, with its reliability and stability as its main positive points.
Many people have been looking forward to this review, so here it is...the AX5T is a great performer, with rock solid stability, and manufacturing quality most people can only dream of. If you're in the market for TX based motherboard, consider the AOpen AX5T (or the AP5T if you desire an AT form factor)
