Battle of the SATA 3.0 Controllers @ Techgage

Published: | Posted By:

We all know that performance in a PC is based on hardware and slightly on how good the drivers are.  Well our friends at Techgage did a little test to see who has the best 6GB/s SATA controller, Intel, AMD or Marvell.

With newer SSDs now coming well within 10% of maxing out a SATA 3.0 port, it's important to make sure that your motherboard is properly equipped to handle such drives if planning to buy one. In our testing, while AMD's and Intel's solutions offered superb performance, Marvell's leaved a bit (or a lot) to be desired.

The results may suprise you.
