Today, November 14, we see the debut of the new Intel Sandy Bridge-E based on the new Socket LGA 2011, they replace the previous LGA 1366. The architecture of these CPUs reflects what we saw about a year ago for the CPU LGA 1155, which marked an important milestone in the evolution of processors. Sandy Bridge LGA 1155, although belonging to the mid-range Intel platforms, has in effect meant the disappearance of the LGA 1156 CPU but also of the LGA 1366, going to compete with high-end CPU such as hexa-core i7 980X and 990X for because of excellent performance, both default and overclocked.
AIDA64 is the latest release of the test instrument and control FinalWire produced by the test in this case concerns the memory controller, the RAM and the CPU cache.
Looking at the bandwidth of memory and various caches, we can see how the new Intel CPU performance is almost always the ruler.
