GIGABYTE 890FXA-UD5 AMD 890FX Motherboard Review

SiSoft Sandra 2010 Memory Bandwidth

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!

Benchmark Results: The GIGABYTE 890FXA-UD5 has the highest memory bandwidth of any of the AMD 890FX system boards, albeit there is only ~.4 GB/s separating any of the boards.
