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.

21GB/s is a decent result from a dual channel kit running at 1600mhz.
Well. im in two minds about this.
1: its good memory priced well
2: 1333mhz? everyone will just ignore it, why not 1600mhz with an XMP profile, remember a LOT of people dont like bioses. they are never even opened!
3: its not a good launch for them as people need to be awed by a new company.
Seems like another clueless chinese company ordering in decent memory and making a mess of it all from a marketing viewpoint.
lovely heatspreaders, much nicer than G.Skills.
Still not sure id buy them, that store you linked in the conclusion looks like a virgin media homepage. I stored a ‘search’ on the memory to look later and its stored in frames so you cant revisit the bookmarked page as it resets to a plain ‘search’ page without holding the name ‘topower’
they also have it all uncategorised, without pictures and details. its memory, why not put it in the memory section of their store? ill wait until a reputable store gets this for sale. if they dont then it will never make an impact on me.
