A significant jump in the Cinebench score was achieved by merely switching boards?
I just replaced the TUF X570 Plus with an AORUS Master and updated the board. No overclocking was done, and both have the latest BIOS. It seems the TUF board might be causing issues, especially since your NAS is running at 5600x. I’m thinking about putting the TUF in my NAS as it’s already showing problems.
It could be several factors contributing to a modest score increase of just 2000 points. The benchmark is quite sensitive to system activity during testing, especially when background tasks are running. A hardware change might have updated the chipset driver, improving performance up to the point where the gigabyte board processes the CPU via the SenseMi algorithm. Regardless, the results aren’t particularly strong or weak concerning motherboard quality. In short, two trials aren’t sufficient to achieve a balanced average across each board with one bench pass. You seem fine with your setup—enjoy your builds!
