Kingston HyperX DDR3 CL9 2000mhz 3GB Triple channel kit



SiSoftware Sandra (the System ANalyser, Diagnostic and Reporting Assistant) is an information & diagnostic utility capable of benchmarking the performance of individual components inside a PC. Each of the benchmarks below were run a total of five times with the highest and lowest scores being discarded and an average being calculated from the remaining three.
 

Everest
 
Focusing mainly on software and hardware information reporting, Everest also comes with a benchmark utility suitable for testing the read, write and latency performance of the memory subsystem. Each of these benchmarks were performed a total of 5 times with the highest and lowest scores being discarded and an average calculated from the remaining 3.
 

 
Super PI
 
SuperPI is the benchmark of choice for many overclockers. It’s lightweight to download and can give a quick indication on how good a system is at number crunching. Once again, testing was performed a total of 5 times, with an average being calculated from the middle three results.
 
 

 
 Results Observations
 

Quite obviously, from the results above it is not the Corsair that ‘dominates’ but the Kingston modules. A 400MHz advantage as well as a 200MHz overclock on the CPU have clearly had an impact on the scores in the benchmarks above.

Let’s see how we got on with the run of 3D Benchmarks…
