SiSoft Sandra

SiSoft Sandra 2016 is a multi-function utility program that supports remote analysis, benchmarking and diagnostic features for PCs, servers, mobile devices and networks. We use the SiSoft Sandra memory bandwidth test to give us an extra set of memory bandwidth results.

Synthetic memory performance was significantly lower than rival vendors across all bandwidth tests. We adjusted a number of UEFI settings to try and account for why this occurred but we were not able to get to the bottom of it. It seems write and copy are the most affected hence why real-world performance is indistinguishable from rival motherboards; most memory operations tend to be read.
