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 MSI 890FXA-GD70 memory bandwidth was slightly lower than the other boards that we are testing today. Interestingly though, both of the 890FX boards, which are the cream of the crop boards, have lower memory bandwidth performance than the 890GX boards.
