Performance - SANDRA Memory | Everest Memory

 

Sandra - Synthetic Tests

SiSoftware's Sandra is an information & diagnostic utility. It should provide most of the information (including undocumented) you need to know about your hardware, software and other devices whether hardware or software. Sandra provides similar level of information to Norton SI, Quarterdeck WinProbe/Manifest, etc. The Win32 version is 32-bit and comes in both ANSI (legacy for Windows 98/Me systems) and native Unicode (Windows NT4/200X/.Net) formats. The Win64 version is 64-bit and comes in native Unicode format.

Do note that all the SANDRA benchmarks are synthetic and thus may not tally with real-life performance. The latter stands for whatever your environment is, i.e. which applications you run with what amount of data and so on. It is up to you to decide whether what Sandra measures is what you want to measure.

Below you can find the scores of Sandra starting with memory performance:

We are starting of with a number of synthetic tests. It is really difficult to understand what we present to you. Interpreting data in the way we tested and what we can show you simply is hard to comprehend, especially with all the mathematic BIOS timings and dividers. Memory tweaking and overclocking is close to science.

For diversity you'll notice the 3GB and 6 GB kit memory at ranges from 1333 MHz up-to a pretty wicked reaching level of an overclocked 2000 MHz which is actually the OCZ Blade series memory.

You are looking at triple channel memory bandwidth in GB per second, higher is obviously better. The color RED represents the memory tested today.

Everest Ultimate Edition

EVEREST 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, Vista and Windows Server 2003 operating systems.

With Everest we'll look at two different tests, as we'll measure both memory read and write performance. Everest does interpret bandwidth a little different opposed to SANDRA.

For a 129 USD kit that A-data memory is hailing serious ass really.

Memory Write performance

Everest again, this time the results in write performance scale a little more intense. At 1600 MHz we reach nearly 15 GB/sec.
