Next: SiSoft Sandra

The SiSoft Sandra tests we’re going to be doing will focus on CPU and Memory performance to see if we can try and differentiate these boards from each other a bit more.

SiSoft - CPU Arithmetic.

SiSoft - CPU Multimedia 

From the CPU tests above, we see a consistent pattern with the ASUS P5KR being Number 1, the MSI P35 in the middle and the nForce motherboard taking up place at the back of the field. Although there isn’t a big difference between the boards, they are at least giving consistent results in the CPU tests, with both P35 chipset motherboards leading the charge.

SiSoft - Memory Bandwidth 

The memory bandwidth test gives a surprising result. All of these boards have the same RAM running at the same speed and two of these boards even have the same memory controller, and yet the MSI P35 Platinum still manages to pull away from the pack in a bad way and give a rather disappointing result compared to the other two. The nForce 680i based motherboard is the clear winner when it comes to memory bandwidth in this case.

SiSoft - Cache/Memory Subsystem 

The last test measures the CPU’s cache and memory subsystems, and both P35 based motherboards are quite a way in front, helping to explain why the nForce board came last in our previous CPU tests shown further up the page. The ASUS P5KR still comes out in front with the MSI P35 Platinum falling right in the middle of the other two models.
