Performance Benchmarks
Cinebench
Once XMP was enabled, the AnarchyX reached the top score in Cinebench 15 and outperformed its nearest rival, the Corsair Vengeance LPX.
The memory kit also performs admirably and remains in first place after the impressive overclocked is applied.
AIDA64
In terms of memory bandwidth, stock performance is excellent and only beaten by a 32GB quad channel kit. This is to be expected, and once again, the AnarchyX showcases its superb price to performance ratio.
The overclocked data drops the memory down to third position, but it’s still well within a margin of error.
SiSoft Sandra
In this test, the AnarchyX managed great bandwidth scores and only just fell behind the Corsair 2800MHz kit. Although, to reiterate, the margin is incredibly small and could easily be the opposite way round during another benchmark run.
This also applies to the overclocked results which are extremely close. Nevertheless, the AnarchyX is within touching distance of second place and performs within my expectations.
The sample’s stock latency is pretty good given the 2800MHz frequency and showcases the high-quality ICs used.
The overclocking results bunch the field up and there’s hardly anything between the results. Despite this, the AnarchyX’s frequency to latency ratio is very good.
WPrime
WPrime is a useful tool to gauge CPU compute times, although memory bandwidth can impact on the results. While using stock values, the AnarchyX set a new standard and managed to complete the task in under 4 seconds. This is a fantastic achievement which deserves recognition.
The overclocked statistics are fairly similar but once again the memory kit manages to compute 32M in under four seconds.
3DMark Fire Strike
Here we can see a massive victory for the AnarchyX but this isn’t really the case. The marked advantage is actually down to driver improvements on the NVIDIA GTX 980Ti and doesn’t fairly reflect the memory’s performance. On the other hand, faster memory and greater capacities can improve results in 3DMark but only by a small margin.
During the overclocked benchmark, there was a slight drop off compared to stock performance. However, this isn’t a cause for concern and illustrates how deviation can occur between multiple runs.
