Here you can download SiSoftware Sandra 2014 which includes remote analysis, benchmarking and diagnostic features for PCs, servers and networks.

SiSoft Sandra (the System ANalyser, Diagnostic and Reporting Assistant) is an information & diagnostic utility.

SANDRA will provide most of the information (including undocumented) you need to know about your hardware, software and other devices whether hardware or software.

It works along the lines of other Windows utilities, however it tries to go beyond them and show you more of what's really going on. Giving the user the ability to draw comparisons at both a high and low-level. You can get information about the CPU, chipset, video adapter, ports, printers, sound card, memory, network, Windows internals, AGP, ODBC Connections, USB2, 1394/Firewire, etc.

SiSoftware Sandra, the latest version of the award-winning utility, includes remote analysis, benchmarking and diagnostic features for PCs, servers, mobile devices and networks.

At SiSoftware from version to version we focus four key areas of software development to make sure we give our users the best software experience. Quite simply our four drivers are:

1. Inclusion of new technologies that ensure our tools remain current.
2. Increased hardware and software support for existing modules.
3. Improving the user interface to make it a richer easier user experience.
4. Filling gaps in the product line in response to our customers' needs. 

This is a platform update release that includes tool, SDK and library updates. Overall, the benchmark scores should still be within variation range - at least on the platforms we have tested.

Platform update: Windows XP, Server 2003/R2 no longer supported

In order to move forward we have to change the environment, more specifically to VS 2013; we took this "opportunity" to remove support for XP and thus Server 2003 - thus supporting Kernel 6.0 and later only.

CUDA SDK 6.5

Now that recent WHQL video drivers support it, and due to VS2013, we changed to SDK 6.5 - which includes native Maxwell (SM50) support. Unfortunately SM10 support has been removed and SM11 support is deprecated.

Internal Scheduler

• Fix for systems with multiple CPU groups (e.g. more than 64 threads) where affinity would be incorrect.
• Fix for benchmark failure when NUMA node would be incorrect due to above.
• Fix for benchmark lock-up when affinity would be incorrect due to above.

CPU benchmark: Dhrystone

• Crash fix for AVX2 x64 code-path on some systems.

CPU benchmark: Multi-Media

• Added Quad-Int (128-bit) implemented as 2x 64-bit integers or 4x 32-bit integers depending on platform.
• Added Double-Int (64-bit) SIMD AVX2, AVX, SSE4 implementation.

CPU benchmark: Scientific

• Improved FMA FGEMM/DGEMM and FFFT/DFFT implementation.

GPGPU benchmark: GP Processing

• Added Quad-Float (128-bit) implemented as 4x single-float (4x 32-bit) for GPUs that do not support native double-float (aka 2x 64-bit) in CUDA, OpenCL.

Video Shader Compute

• Added Quad-Float (128-bit) implemented as 4x single-float (4x 32-bit) for GPUs that do not support native double-float (aka 2x 64-bit) in DirectX 11, 10 and OpenGL 3.x+
• Reduced OpenGL shader requirements by using extensions; lower base GL/GLSL are now supported if the extensions are supported.
