Sorry to say, it's the Nvidia SATA chipset and the Nvidia driver.
This is an issue noticed by other Nvidia chipset board users, and some Mac PC users with Nvidia chipsets. It happens with any SSD that is SATA III.
When a PC is started, the SATA chipset communicates with each drive it finds, and among other things negotiates the speed of the chipset - drive interface. Every drive has data that informs the SATA interface what speed it can operate at, a 530 has data identifying it as a SATA III, 6Gb/s drive. The Nvidia chipset was designed before SATA III existed, and does not recognize the SATA III identification as valid data, so to be safe switches to SATA I speeds, 1.5Gb/s. Your benchmark results show that clearly.
Note the release date of the Nvidia driver, maybe 2008 at best? Nvidia abandon manufacture and support of their chipsets several years ago, meaning no new drivers. Unfortunately nothing can be done to fix this issue. I don't think a different driver helps, like the standard Microsoft driver available in your Windows installation. Worth a try but I don't recall anyone saying it made a difference.
As I said, the same thing will happen with any SATA III drive, I've seen forum posts about this at OCZ, SanDisk, and for earlier Intel SATA III SSDs.
