Applications
MSI's low-cost P35 Neo Combo makes a startling rise to the top in 3D Studio Max.
Audio
Asus takes the lead in Lame audio encoding, but MSI gets both its boards into the spotlight for OGG. The actual performance difference in these tests normally comes down to the smallest of variations in CPU clock speed.
Video
Gigabyte's high-end board took the lead in DivX, and several retest proved its miniscule advantage to be consistent. The same is true of both MSI motherboards in XviD.
