[b]SATA Performance
Website: ATTO Disk Benchmark
We tested the SATA and performance with an OCZ Vector 128GB, as this is one of the fastest SSDs we've ever tested, and it can test the maximum speed of SATA 3Gbps and SATA 6Gbps ports.
We use ATTO Disk Benchmark, and take the read and write speeds for 1,024KB data chunks.

Power Consumption
Website: Prime95
To see how much power the motherboard consumed at idle and load and while at stock speeds and when overlcocked, we used Prime95 to stress the CPU to its limits, putting all eight cores of our Core i7-4770K test CPU under load and allowing the power readout to level off.
