AMD Performance Edition 8GB Memory Review

Testing:

SiSoftware Sandra 2011: In this program, I will be running the following benchmarks: Cache and Memory, Memory Bandwidth, and Memory Latency. Higher is better in all tests, except for Memory Latency, where lower is better.

AIDA64 Extreme Edition: is a software utility designed to be used for hardware diagnosis and benchmarking. I will be using the Cache and Memory benchmark to test each module’s read, write, and copy bandwidth, as well as the latency test.

A bit of a good showing for the new line of AMD memory. With slightly tighter timings and fractionally higher frequency, the AMD/Patriot sticks take five out of eight contests in the AIDA 64 suite. Most likely due to discernibly lower latencies.
