Sisoft; Sandra 2007:

SiSoftware, founded in 1995, is one of the leading providers of computer analysis, diagnostic and benchmarking software. The flagship product, known as “SANDRA”, was launched in 1997 and has become one of the most widely used products in its field. SANDRA is used by almost 400 world-wide IT publications, magazines, review sites to analyze the performance of today?s computers.

Multi-Core Support: As well as SMP (multi-processor) and SMT (multi-threading/Hyper-Threading) support we have added multi-core support for future AMD and Intel CPUs. The benchmarks have been optimized to schedule the optimum number of threads on the optimum (virtual) CPU on both multi-core and Hyper-Threaded computers.

All of the motherboards in our testing held their own in this test. They are so close in score that there really is no clear cut winner to call here.

The Nvidia board just trupms the competition here. The memory bandwidth scores are just strangely high compared to the other two boards with different chipsets. Our testing was repeated a number of times, and the scores remained the same here in Sandra.

Our Multimedia testing pretty much revealed the same thing: too close to call. All the boards scored right at the same. Let’s move on!
