You're definately not using the above. Because it is nowhere near as fast as your benchmarks show.

I've just removed the SSD used my brothers PC thats on "ASRock Extreme 4"

and this is the same SSD test on his mobo:

That looks great but don't get anything similar on my machine.

What could be the problem on my end ? I'm not occupying the SSD while doing the tests, i've turned off Anti-viruses ,etc.

Why are my results fluctuating especially the write speed.

ps: It says it's running Marvell for storage interface controller. Here

To get those speeds: it'd have to be running on this:

"Chipset:

2 x SATA 6Gb/s connectors (SATA3_0, SATA3_1) supporting up to 2 SATA 6Gb/s devices"

which would be intel ports.

The Marvell is provided just to increase the number of ports beyond that provided by the Intel chipset and it maxes out at 380MB/sec

As to the problem... power saving settings perhaps? In Windows control panel or BIOS?

I've solved the problem.

I just disabled "C3/C6 State Support" in Bios (I've got a Gigabyte Z68X-UD5-B3 motherboard)

and after I disabled it, I was able to get these results below :

Which is better now. However, now I have another problem because i disabled the C3/C6 state.

on idle it's running at 3.5 GHz

I'll go ahead update my BIOS and enable that state and see if it still has the same problem.
