Upgrading to Intel’s P67 will certainly require a new motherboard, but the fact that you won’t need a new CPU appears to be Intel’s dirty-little-secret. ASRock found the secret and exploited it, bringing next-generation performance to today’s processors.

Storage Performance: PCMark Vantage

The combination of higher bandwidth and shorter access times seen in our low-level tests are represented by a far higher PCMark score for the P67 Extreme6.

PCMark’s application tests measure total transfer time for a group of files of fixed size, thereby including both seek time and transfer rate in a single bandwidth number. It’s easy to see that the P67 helps the Core i5-750, even if slightly.
