About AIDA64 Extreme Edition

AIDA64 Extreme Edition is a streamlined Windows diagnostic and benchmarking software for home users. AIDA64 Extreme Edition provides a wide range of features to assist in overclocking, hardware error diagnosis, stress testing, and sensor monitoring. It has unique capabilities to assess the performance of the processor, system memory, and disk drives. AIDA64 is compatible with all current 32-bit and 64-bit Microsoft Windows operating systems, including Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2.

AIDA64 implements a set of 64-bit benchmarks to measure how fast the computer performs various data processing tasks and mathematical calculations. Memory and cache benchmarks are available to analyze system RAM bandwidth and latency. Processor benchmarks utilize MMX, 3DNow! and SSE instructions, and scale up to 32 processor cores. For legacy processors all benchmarks are available in 32-bit version as well. AIDA64 Disk Benchmark determines the data transfer speed of hard disk drives, solid-state drives, optical drives, and flash memory based devices.

Surprise, surprise, look what we have here. Set up in the exact same configuration between the two motherboards, it shouldn't be a surprise to you that the results are very close for both X58 based boards. I am glad our CPU is still working hard at crunching away at data and producing consistent results across the board, but the G1.Sniper did, in fact, take the lead here. If you are about to jump to the conclusion, please take a look at the next page first, as this is the first motherboard review that we have used PCMark 7 for benchmarking -- so you may see some new and updated results.
