Everest Home Edition - Memory Read Performance
EVEREST Home Edition is a freeware hardware diagnostics and memory benchmarking solution for home PC users.
It offers accurate hardware information and diagnostics capabilities, including online features, memory benchmarks, hardware monitoring, and low-level hardware information. EVEREST Home Edition is optimized for Microsoft Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 operating systems, and it fully supports the XP look & feel.
Above memory read performance; as measured with Everest, a tool that is growing slowly on me. Synthetic numbers are simply the best way to show you the exact difference between timings and frequencies. Something that is very hard to show with games.
The modules used:
1024 MB - Corsair 2x512MB CAS4 @ 667 MHz
CMX2X512A-5400UL 4:4:4:14 (1 GB @ 667)
2048 GB Patriot 2x1GB CAS4 @ 667 MHz
PDC22G5300LLK 4:4:4:12 (2 GB @ 667)
4096 GB Corsair 2x2GB CAS4 @ 800 MHz
TWIN2X4096-6400C4DHX 4:4:4:12 (4GB @ 800)
2048 GB Corsair 2x1GB CAS5 @ 1143 MHz
CM2X1024-9136C5D 5:5:5:15 (2GB @ 1143)
So we use four memory kits, one 1GB, two 2GB and the 4GB kit. So where you spot TWIN2X4096-6400C4DHX 4:4:4:12 (4GB @ 800) that's the memory as tested today. You'll notice it's really close to the Dominator series throughout the review. But bare in mind, the Dominator memory is more suitable for overclocked systems.
Memory Write Performance
Memory Write performance - Charming and rather fun results for the 4 GB kit. Very nice.
Memory Copy Performance
When we look at pure copy performance we see the Dominator memory (91365D) take (a marginal) lead.
