ASUS ZenBook 3 (UX390UA) Ultrabook Review

PCMark 8

To give a general, overall score of the ZenBook's performance, I ran PCMark 8’s ‘Home Conventional’ test.

The ZenBook produced a decent score of 2787, though the XPS 13 is still roughly 3% faster here due to its faster CPU.

Memory bandwidth

To test the memory bandwidth of the 8GB, 2133MHz DDR3L RAM that comes with the ZenBook, I ran SiSoft Sandra’s memory bandwidth benchmark.

The ZenBook's memory does relatively well here – it is faster than the XPS 13's memory as it uses 2133MHz RAM, though it is still the older DDR3-standard, not DDR4.
