Sandra 2010 Memory Bandwidth

SiSoftware Sandra 2010

The Sisoft Sandra 2010 benchmark utility was released a few weeks ago and we have started to include it in our benchmarking. Sandra 2010 now comes with support for Virtualization (Virtual PC/Server, Hyper-V, VMware) and GPGPU (OpenCL, DirectX 11 Compute Shader/DirectCompute). Today we will be utilizing Sandra 2010 to look at memory bandwidth performance!

SiSoftware Sandra 2010

Benchmark Results: The AMD Phenom II 910e processor has an advantage when it comes to memory performance since the AMD AM2+ chips like the Phenom II 940 are limited to DDR2 while the Phenom II 910e utilizes faster DDR3. With the MSI 785G motherboard running dual channel memory at 1600MHz it was easily able to pass up the performance seen on the DDR2 platform at 1066MHz. The Intel Core i7 920 system with triple-channel memory leads the chart, but it is also a more expensive platform to build.
