Sandra 2009 Memory Bandwidth
Sisoft; Sandra 2009:
The Sisoft Sandra 2009 benchmark utility just came out recently and we have started to include it in our benchmarking. With Sandra 2009 you can now easily compare the performance of the tested device with its speed and its (published) power (TDP)! Sandra XII SP2 also has SSE4 (Intel) and SSE4A (AMD) benchmark code-paths, which is great for those of you testing next-generation AMD & Intel chips.
Results: Sandra 2009 showed both the Athlon II X4 620 processor and Athlon II X4 630 processor with the dual channel memory running at 1066MHz with 5-5-5-12 timings had around 12.6GB/s memory bandwidth. Not bad and right where the other AMD processors are that are running 4GB PC2-8500 memory kits.
