Gerade wurde eine neue Version von SiSoftware Sandra 20/20 (2020) für Windows 10, Windows 8.1, Windows 7, Server 2016, 2012/R2 und 2008/R2 veröffentlicht.

SiSoft Sandra Lite 2020 steht natürlich wieder auf unserem Server als Download bereit und kann dort runtergeladen werden:
SiSoftware Sandra Lite 2020
Die älteren SiSoftware Sandra Versionen stehen dort ebenfalls weiterhin als Archiv zur Verfügung.

Hier sind die neuen Features:


It adds two Neural Networks AI/ML (Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning) benchmarks for both CPU and GP (GPU) to measure both CNN (Convolution Neural Network) & RNN (Recurrent Neural Networks) performance on modern hardware.
It also adds hardware support and optimisations for brand-new CPU architectures (AMD Ryzen 2 (3000 series); Intel IceLake, CometLake) not forgetting GPGPU architectures across the various interfaces (CUDA, OpenCL, DirectX ComputeShader, OpenGL Compute).
As SiSoftware operates a "just-in-time" release cycle, some features were introduced in Sandra 2018 service packs: in Sandra 20/20 they have been updated and enhanced based on all the feedback received.


- Processor Neural Networks (AI/ML)
A combined performance index of CNN (inference/forward & training) & RNN (inference/forward & training) for all precisions (single/FP32, double/FP64 floating-point) and instruction sets (AVX512, AVX2/FMA, AVX, SSE4, SSE2, RTM/HLE with NUMA and large-page support)

- GP (GPU) Neural Networks (AI/ML)
A combined performance index of CNN (inference/forward & training) & RNN (inference/forward & training) for all precisions (half/FP16, single/FP32 floating-point) and platforms (CUDA, OpenCL, DirectX Compute)

- CNN (Convolution Neural Network) Architecture
Detailed document on the CNN architecture, data-sets and results that underpin our choices for the new benchmarks.

- RNN (Recurrent Neural Network) Architecture
Detailed document on the RNN architecture, data-sets and results that underpin our choices for the new benchmarks.

- Major changes
 All connections to website engines (Ranker, Information, Price) are now secured by SSL through HTTP.
 Sandra client (management console) is now installed as native 64-bit (on x64 and arm64) and thus needs 64-bit Access components (2016, 2013, 2010, etc.) or SQL Server (2017, 2016, 2014, etc) for its database.

- Key features of Sandra 20/20
 4 native architectures support (x86, x64, ARM64*- – Windows; ARM, ARM64, x86, x64 – Android)
 Huge official hardware support through technology partners (AMD/ATI, nVidia, Intel).
 4 native (GP)GPU/APU platforms support (OpenCL 2.1+, CUDA 10.1+, DirectX Compute Shader 11/10+, OpenGL Compute 4.5+, Vulkan 1.0+).
 4 native Graphics platforms support (DirectX 11.x/10.x, OpenGL 4.0+, Vulkan 1.0+).
 9 language versions (English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Japanese, Chinese (Traditional, Simplified), Russian) in a single installer.
 Enhanced Sandra Lite (Eval) version (free for personal/educational use, evaluation for other uses)
 
- Reviews using Sandra 20/20
 AMD Ryzen2 3900X Review & Benchmarks – CPU 12-core/24-thread Performance
 AMD Ryzen2 3700X Review & Benchmarks – CPU 8-core/16-thread Performance
