Memory Benchmarks: SiSoft Sandra, PCMark05, 3DMark05

SiSoft Sandra 2005 Source:Sandra

Sandra is designed to test the theoretical power of a complete system as well as the individual components. The results are also purely theoretical and may not represent real world performance.

2x 1024MB Corsair CM2X1024-6400C3 (218/872) 7997 7920

Memory bandwidth results at stock speed are pretty good, about 100MB/s faster than the other DDR2 memory PCSTATS has tested recently. Overclocking allows the memory to get near the 8GB/s barrier, and that's pretty quick!

PCMark05 is a premium tool for measuring both normal home use and simple 3D performance of the latest PC hardware. There are 11 system tests - each one is designed to represent a certain type of PC usage. By running these tests, PCMark05 stresses the components in a similar manner as they are stressed in normal home usage.

PCMark05 results are strong for the Corsair Twin2X2048-6400C3 at its stock speeds/timings. This memory is faster than the other lower latency DDR2 tested here.

3DMark05 Source: FutureMark

3DMark05 is best suited for the latest generation of DirectX9.0 graphics cards. It is the first benchmark to require a DirectX9.0 compliant hardware with support for Pixel Shaders 2.0 or higher! By combining high quality 3D tests, CPU tests, feature tests, image quality tools, and much more, 3DMark05 is a premium benchmark for evaluating the latest generation of gaming hardware.

2x 1024MB Corsair CM2X1024-6400C3 (218/872) 8712

3DMark05 is still very much a videocard benchmark, but we see that the CPU portion of the tests gets a decent boost due to the tighter CAS latency timings at stock speeds.
