How's my memory bandwidth guys?

drdeathx · Jan 7, 2013, 03:31 PM

In General. terrible...... LOL AMD platforms have terrible scores...

itsakjt · Jan 7, 2013, 04:01 PM

They are not terrible. I have seen AMD platforms have much lesser latency than high end Intel systems. Their architectures are different. Overall, performance is competitive.

LOL, Intel pushes as low as 30ns for Latencies and almost double read/write and copy speeds..... Where did you see this? I did respond in general BTW. If he wants comparisons to a 955 he can search the internet... Memory speeds and latencies are not AMD's strong point.

there is an alternate to these individual "hows my ...". if you take time to go through the forums, there are already threads to discuss your cable management, overclocks, Memory performance and pc in general threads.

If we grouped everything up into existing threads, there would be no new threads.

@drdeathx - Well how can you compare a say 900 USD Intel CPU to a 200 USD AMD CPU. Everyone knows high end Intels perform way better than the highest end AMD but costs thrice or even quad of the AMD systems. The reason I posted this was to know how much it is good for my system and to the systems which are similarly spec'd. We are not talking about outright performance here.

he asked a question and I answered it(my opinion).......

if my answer is not up to your standards state your opinion... Hehehehehehe

threads are supposed to be there for people asking help

. not for asking "hows my system etc"

This will give you a hint on what you are up against with a budget intel system

itsakjt · Jan 7, 2013, 04:41 PM

Ok.

Thanks for the info.

Jack1n · Jan 7, 2013, 04:42 PM

Well for a Deneb i would have it say its really good.

Maxmemm scores higher compared to Aida and not comparing apples to apples.

itsakjt · Jan 7, 2013, 04:58 PM

Well I just found something weird!

I tested my desktop with MaxMemm and the score is 10 GBPS along with latency of 59 ns.
I tested my Pentium Dual Core B960 laptop(2nd gen SandyB) with Maxmemm and the score is 11 GBPS with latency of 18 ns.

However, SiSoftware Sandra tells a completely different result. On my desktop, it says 16.5 GBPS and on my laptop, it says 12.5 GBPS!!

Please justify. If possible, please try an Intel Core i3, i5, i7 system with SiSoft Sandra-memory bandwidth.

The OP used Aida and your throwing up different benchmarks.... Use Aida to keep it consistent.

itsakjt · Jan 7, 2013, 05:02 PM

I am the OP and I used both AIDA and SiSoft Sandra in my pic. Please check it again.

Aida is easier to read all on one screen. Sandra does not have latencies shown .. Just sayn

Latencies are shown well, they are in too much detail. :P
