About AIDA64 Engineer

AIDA64 Engineer has a hardware detection engine unrivaled in its class. It provides detailed information about installed software and offers diagnostic functions and support for overclocking. As it is monitoring sensors in real time, it can gather accurate voltage, temperature and fan speed readings, while its diagnostic functions help detect and prevent hardware issues. It also offers a couple of benchmarks for measuring the performance of individual hardware components or the whole system. It is compatible with all 32-bit and 64-bit Windows editions, including Windows 10 and Windows Server 2016.

The final set of AIDA64's test are the synthetic memory tests. Traditionally, in pretty much all the benchmarks, higher memory bandwidth RAM kits are generally favored on the Copy, Write, and Read results. Operating at DDR4-3600, the Patriot Viper 4 Blackout came in at expected results compared to the other kits due to their operating frequency. On the other hand, we can see the effects of AMD's Infinity Fabric interconnect architecture in the fact the DDR4-4000 kit was not always the highest scored result, despite its higher frequency. Overall, the Patriot Viper 4 Blackout DDR4-3600 2x8GB performed well in these tests. In terms of latency, this kit was surprisingly faster than some CAS 16 kits, only narrowly beaten out by the Ballistix Elite DDR4-4000 running at 3600MHz.
