Sandra’s tests are a great way to compare the full performance of an individual component without concern for the bottlenecks of connected components. We expect a huge loss for today’s quad-core, since the previous build’s six-core CPU is also measured at its full potential.



Our current system’s memory can’t be overclocked effectively, and doesn’t even support significant latency reductions. The current system’s memory is a dead-end for performance chasers, though buying them in hopes that the delivered parts would resemble the photographed parts was a mistake we couldn't have avoided.
