We began our testing with SiSoftware's SANDRA, the System ANalyzer, Diagnostic and Reporting Assistant. SANDRA consists of a set of information and diagnostic utilities that can provide a host of useful information about your hardware and operating system. We ran three of the built-in subsystem tests that partially comprise the SANDRA XI suite (CPU, Multimedia, and Memory) with a Core 2 Duo E6400 installed in the boards we tested. All of the scores reported below were taken with the processor running at its default clock speed of 2.13GHz.
As we expected, both boards posted very similar scores. The differences between the results is neglible and would never be noticed by a user.
