SiSoftware Sandra (the System ANalyser, Diagnostic and Reporting Assistant) is an information & diagnostic utility. It should provide most of the information (including undocumented) you need to know about your hardware, software and other devices whether hardware or software.
Sandra is a (girl’s) name of Greek origin that means “defender”, “helper of mankind”. We think that’s quite fitting.
It works along the lines of other Windows utilities, however it tries to go beyond them and show you more of what’s really going on. Giving the user the ability to draw comparisons at both a high and low-level. You can get information about the CPU, chipset, video adapter, ports, printers, sound card, memory, network, Windows internals, AGP, PCI, PCI-X, PCIe (PCI Express), database, USB, USB2, 1394/Firewire, etc.
Native ports for all major operating systems are available:
- Windows XP, 2003/R2, Vista, 7, 2008/R2 (x86)
- Windows XP, 2003/R2, Vista, 7, 2008/R2 (x64)
- Windows 2003/R2, 2008/R2* (IA64)
- Windows Mobile 5.x (ARM CE 5.01)

- AMD64/EM64T/x64 – 64-bit extensions to x86
- IA64 – Intel* Itanium 64-bit
Great all round performance, at the same level as the 2700k, except in the memory bandwidth test where it is significantly faster, falling in behind the Intel Core i7 3960X system at almost 40 GB/s.
Nice CPU, but im happy with my 2500k. hope it lasts at least another year with the games I play !
Very nice indeed. I like the asrock board, most of the p67 micro atx boards sucked
Interesting to see them releasing a CPU at the same price as the 2600k for the X79 platform. Wasnt expecting that.
It looks like the Cyberlink MediaEspresso tests didn’t use Intel Quick Sync Video on the Intel Core i5 2500K or Core i7 2600K/2700K systems. Those processors would appear higher up the table if that was enabled and used.
Well l have the asrock extreme 4 m with 16 gb trip memory with 2xssd two hard drives all in raid 0 with 6600it x2 fps battlefield 148fps 17_3820 CPU ut very fast it for sale
