PCMark is a favorite benchmarking program for PC enthusiasts and reviewers alike, because it provides a very easy way to measure performance of different computers. It evaluates a system from seven perspectives (We only included the first six results, since the HDD test is not very relevant to a RAM review), and can be considered a synthetic real life benchmark. In the latest version of PCMark, Futuremark claims they have brought down the variance of each run to ensure accuracy of their benchmarks, and with a relatively low margin of error in mind, all tested RAM came out to be extremely close. Spots are often traded, so no clear leader can be defined.
