Synthetic Benchmarks

PCMark 10

Skywalker Plus DDR4 64GB (2x32GB) 4000MHz Memory PCMark 10 performance

Starting off the benchmarking ceremonies, we begin to see that the stock clocked Skywalker Plus DDR4 64GB (2x32GB) 4000MHz Memory takes the lead by less than 1% over the base DDR4 clock speeds and a 2% lead above overclocking itself.

Geekbench 5 (Multicore)

Skywalker Plus DDR4 64GB (2x32GB) 4000MHz Memory Geekbench 5 multicore performance

Moving on to Geekbench 5’s multicore test, we see the Skywalker Plus DDR4 64GB (2x32GB) 4000MHz Memory pull out a win at its stock configuration over the base DDR4 speeds and the overclocked version of itself.

Geekbench 5 (Single Core)

Skywalker Plus DDR4 64GB (2x32GB) 4000MHz Memory Geekbench 5 single core performance

Dropping down to the single core Geekbench 5 test, we see the Skywalker Plus DDR4 64GB (2x32GB) 4000MHz Memory tie itself when overclocked, both running a fraction faster than the base DDR4 speeds.

AIDA64 Memory Read

Skywalker Plus DDR4 64GB (2x32GB) 4000MHz Memory AIDA64 memory read performance

Looking at pure memory read speed, the Overclocked Skywalker Plus DDR4 64GB (2x32GB) 4000MHz Memory predictably comes out on top, showing a 35% boost over the base DDR4 clocks.

AIDA64 Memory Write

Skywalker Plus DDR4 64GB (2x32GB) 4000MHz Memory AIDA64 memory write performance

On the AIDA64 memory writing side of things, we see the Overclocked Skywalker Plus DDR4 64GB (2x32GB) 4000MHz Memory produce a 23.8% gain over the base DDR4.

AIDA64CPU Queen

Skywalker Plus DDR4 64GB (2x32GB) 4000MHz Memory AIDA64 CPU Queen performance

With AIDA64’s CPU queen, we are starting to see where having a synchronized infinity fabric starts to make a difference in performance with the base DDR4-2666 configuration tarring and feathering the Skywalker Plus DDR4 64GB (2x32GB) 4000MHz Memory.

AIDA64 SHA3

Skywalker Plus DDR4 64GB (2x32GB) 4000MHz Memory SHA3 performance

With the AIDA64 SHA3 test, we see just an academic difference between the Skywalker Plus DDR4 64GB (2x32GB) 4000MHz Memory and the base DDR4-2666. Overclocking shaved a couple of percent off its performance, likely again due to the infinity fabric synchronization.

CineBench R23 (Multi Core)

Skywalker Plus DDR4 64GB (2x32GB) 4000MHz Memory Cinebench R23 multicore performance

In Cinebench R23’s multicore test, the Skywalker Plus DDR4 64GB (2x32GB) 4000MHz Memory at stock turns in a slightly faster score than the overclocked value. The base clocked DDR4-2666 slips into last place by a rounding error.

CineBench R23 (Single Core)

Skywalker Plus DDR4 64GB (2x32GB) 4000MHz Memory Cinebench R23 single core performance

In Cinebench R23’s single-core test, across the board, we have what we would call an academic tie. A difference of 3 points on a scale of 1625 could be attributed to the reviewer yawning at different times during the test.

Blender Monster

Skywalker Plus DDR4 64GB (2x32GB) 4000MHz Memory Blender Monster performance

Getting the Blender out for its Monster test, we again find the Skywalker Plus DDR4 64GB (2x32GB) 4000MHz Memory in the lead by a rounding error over the base clocked DDR4-2666 and itself when overclocked.

Blender Classroom

Skywalker Plus DDR4 64GB (2x32GB) 4000MHz Memory Blender classroom performance

Blender’s classroom *appears* to shake things up a bit, but we’re talking about getting the hundredth’s place involved to even determine if there was a difference in score.

Blender Junkshop

Skywalker Plus DDR4 64GB (2x32GB) 4000MHz Memory Blender junkshop performance

Moving on to Blender’s Junkshop, we see a 1% difference between the configurations.

VRay 5

Skywalker Plus DDR4 64GB (2x32GB) 4000MHz Memory VRay 5 performance

To round out the synthetic testing, VRay 5 puts another victory in the hands of the Skywalker Plus DDR4 64GB (2x32GB) 4000MHz Memory over its overclocked self and the base configured memory.
