3DMark06

Futuremark’s 3DMark06 has a built-in CPU test is a multi-threaded DirectX gaming metric that’s useful for comparing relative performance between similarly equipped systems. This test consists of two different 3D scenes that are processed with a software renderer that is dependent on the host CPU’s performance. Calculations that are normally reserved for your 3D accelerator are instead sent to the CPU for processing and rendering. The frame-rate generated in each test is used to determine the final score.

Benchmark Results: The Kingston HyperX 1800MHz kit was 5.7% faster than the Corsair PC3-12800 CL9 memory kit, which shows the memory bandwidth helped slgihtly and the extra processor clock frequency really helps.
