AIDA64
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.
Like Sandy Bridge chips, Ivy Bridge is a huge lover of bandwidth and the more you can give it the happier it is. Running AIDA64 shows that the 3rd generation chips are able to open up more bandwidth to the memory giving a faster channel for data to fly along.
