SiSoft Sandra

Sisoft’s “Sandra” tool allows you to run a series of component specific tests on your system and compare them to a wide number of components within the results database. This can be useful in determining how well your system is performing and if any changes in components would benefit you with regards to performance.

Comparing our test system to Sandra's database we see that the FX-60 has stellar performance in the Dhrystone test with an advantage of nearly 5000 MIPS over the Intel 955XE! The FX-60 also shows a reasonable increase over the 4800+ with an increase of just under 3000 MIPS. Whetstone performance isn’t as good as Intel’s top end chip however the FX-60 does outscore the Athlon 4800+ by a reasonable 800 MFLOPS.

Integer performance is another highlight for the FX-60 with it showing a 6% performance advantage over a reference Intel 955XE setup.
