About SuperPI
Super PI is a computer program that calculates pi to a specified number of digits after the decimal point—up to a maximum of 32 million. It uses Gauss–Legendre algorithm and is a Windows port of the program used by Yasumasa Kanada in 1995 to compute pi to 232 digits.
Super Pi is used by many overclockers to test the performance and stability of their computers. In the overclocking community, the standard program provides a benchmark for enthusiasts to compare "world record" pi calculation times and demonstrate their overclocking abilities. The program can also be used to test the stability of a certain overclock speed. If a computer is able to calculate PI to the 32 millionth place after the decimal without mistake, it is considered to be moderately stable in terms of RAM and CPU. However, longer tests with other CPU/RAM intensive calculation programs will run for hours instead of minutes and may better stress system stability. While Super Pi is not the fastest program for calculating Pi, it remains very popular in the hardware and overclocking communities.

Including SuperPI in benchmark results has been a longstanding tradition because it provides a quick and straightforward assessment that can be intriguing. While SuperPI is not the fastest method for calculating Pi nor the most demanding, it remains popular among enthusiasts for showcasing overclocking achievements on various platforms. In this instance, the Crucial Pro Overclocking White DDR5-6000 module performed in the middle of the pack, securing the fifth fastest time out of eleven kits tested.
About Cinebench 2024
Cinebench 2024 utilizes the power of Redshift, Cinema 4D's default rendering engine, to evaluate your computer's CPU and GPU capabilities. Cinebench 2024 is designed to accommodate a broad range of hardware configurations - while it seamlessly supports x86/64 architecture (Intel/AMD) on Windows and macOS, it also extends its reach to Apple Silicon on macOS and Arm64 CPUs on Windows, ensuring compatibility with the latest advancements in hardware technology. Additionally, Cinebench 2024 streamlines the benchmarking process by utilizing a consistent scene file for both CPU and GPU testing. Best of all: It's free!

Cinebench 2024, Maxon's latest benchmark, measures both CPU and GPU rendering performance. The CPU tests include scenarios for utilizing only one core and all available cores. Obviously, having a fast CPU or GPU will play a primary role in determining these scores, the memory still plays a role in these results. As you can see in our charts above, the Crucial Pro Overclocking White DDR5-6000 was in second place for both of the CPU tests. In the GPU test, it performed less favorably as the lowest performing memory kit.
