Kingston Value PC3-10600 DDR3 1333MHz CL9 12GB (6x2GB) kit
SiSoftware Sandra (the System ANalyser, Diagnostic and Reporting Assistant) is an information & diagnostic utility capable of benchmarking the performance of individual components inside a PC. Each of the benchmarks below were run a total of five times with the highest and lowest scores being discarded and an average being calculated from the remaining three.
Focusing mainly on software and hardware information reporting, Everest also comes with a benchmark utility suitable for testing the read, write and latency performance of the memory subsystem. Each of these benchmarks were performed a total of 5 times with the highest and lowest scores being discarded and an average calculated from the remaining 3.
PassMark is a popular benchmarking suite which test all aspect of PC hardware.The Memory benchmarks both read (cached and un cached), small bock allocation and write speeds. Each memory test was performed a total of 5 times, with an average being calculated from the middle three results.

Let’s see if the same benefits were to be had with the synthetic run of 3D benchmarks…
