The creators of the new AIDA 64 2.00 benchmark contacted us just before our launch coverage went live today and while we didn’t have time for a full multi platform analysis, we wanted to include some results from the Intel i7 3960X EE / Gigabyte GA X79 UD3 / 16GB GSkill Ripjaws Z (2133mhz) system @ 4.2ghz. This means you can download the free trial and compare against your own system.
