Performance - DDR3 Memory read | write
Memory Read test
Here a memory read test managed with the latest Everest system suite. DDR3 performance achieved with Phenom II X3 720 BE and then the Hummer 1333 MHz DDR3 is nice, but slightly slower. Marginal really. We do see a small improvement over DDR2 / 790GX.
Memory Write test
The new AM3 Phenom II processors in both read and write performance seem to benefit from the new memory controller, it's really fast, yet the difference between DDR2 and DDR3 in write performance is nearly NIL, again a tie.
