Gigabyte Aero 15X-CF2 (W/ Pantone screen & GTX 1070 Max-Q)

SiSoftware Sandra (the System ANalyser, Diagnostic and Reporting Assistant) is an information & diagnostic utility. It should provide most of the information (including undocumented) you need to know about your hardware, software and other devices whether hardware or software.Sandra is a (girls’) name of Greek origin that means “defender”, “helper of mankind”. We think that’s quite fitting.It works along the lines of other Windows utilities, however it tries to go beyond them and show you more of what’s really going on. Giving the user the ability to draw comparisons at both a high and low-level. You can get information about the CPU, chipset, video adapter, ports, printers, sound card, memory, network, Windows internals, AGP, PCI, PCI-X, PCIe (PCI Express), database, USB, USB2, 1394/Firewire, etc.

The Gigabyte’s first benchmark results indicate its high-end abilities. The Aero’s single-threaded arithmetic score is good, and its multi-threaded result is just over four times as rapid – no surprise considering that this is a quad-core processor with Hyper-Threading.

We’re pleased to see solid multi-threaded memory bandwidth, too – there’s been no cost-cutting with single-channel memory in this machine.
