Testing – CPU
First up we have SiSoftware Sandra Lite 2011.SP4c. We ran the two CPU specific benchmarks the processor arithmetic and processor multimedia. Remember higher scores are better on both tests.

Super Pi calculates pi to a specified number of digits after the decimal point – up to a maximum of 32 million. It uses Gauss–Legendre algorithm and is a Windows port of the program used by Yasumasa Kanada in 1995 to compute Pi. Results are presented in seconds, lower times are better.

A new program we have added to our testing is the AIDA64 Extreme Edition. It is the successor to “Lavalys Everest”. We will be running the CPU specific benchmarks: Queen, PhotoWorxx, ZLib, AES and Hash. These tests use very little system memory, so they are very good for comparing different CPUs. First up is Queen and PhotoWorxx and AES, remember higher scores are better.
