I use wPrime with eight threads selected in the options since it provides a consistently high workload throughout the full length of the test and runs long enough for the VRM and CPU to produce a fair bit of heat. The sole board-only power measurements possible without physically modifying a motherboard are those taken via the 8-pin CPU connector, making it the only figure of value worth reporting. Total system power consumption is no longer reported as this figure can change depending on what VGA is installed.

While this may not prove to isolate the CPU power draw in all instances, it does serve as a good indicator of board efficiency and effective VRM design. I isolate the power coming through the 8-pin ATX connector using an in-line meter that provides voltage and current readings, and total wattage passed through. Up along the top you have a few key board features (audio boost 2 and the Killer E2200) and the Intel tags to show what CPUs are supported. The cover has a large silver dragon on the black and red box. Power ConsumptionWe measure CPU power consumption since one of our first tasks is to truly verify system stability. MSI may have changed the naming scheme, but the packaging for the Z97 Gaming 5 is basically the same as previous MSI gaming motherboards. Good things take time, and with such a rushed launch, that time simply is not present.

In the coming weeks, I will add more Z97 results to my graphs while also removing some Z87 results, and by the end of June, when I have actually had a decent amount of time to play with this platform, I should have a concrete set of results you can base your purchasing choices on. This does not prevent the platform from showing what it is capable of and provides me with the opportunity to show something a bit different. So these are the results you will get if you pick these parts, and they might differ if you pick a different CPU, or different memory, like I have been forced to do. Be that as it may, when it comes to the parts to build your system, there are a lot of choices out there. I thought about running a bunch of older boards again to get new results, but I really do not have the time to since certain companies out there launched the board early. At this point, I do not exactly have the same hardware I did then, so performance reported in this review is not 100% comparable to other products I have reviewed. Most of my past test system suffered an untimely death, casualties of a dying PSU during an OCing session. Naturally, I have to make a disclaimer or two at this point.
