After careful consideration I have decided to transfer all hardware review activities to a new domain.  I purchased Hardwareasylum.com in 2012 and have been working hard to build a new and improved Ninjalane on that domain.  If you are reading this you have reached one of the archived articles, news, projects and/or reviews that were left behind during the site migration. 

Please update your bookmarks and be sure to visit the new and improved Ninjalane at Hardwareasylum.com

    SiSoft Sandra
    Sandra is a software collection of synthetic benchmarks that will give us a basic idea as to what a system is capable of. It should be noted that SiSoft numbers change depending on what version you have installed; these were recorded using Sandra Professional Business Version 2009.1.15.42
    Synthetic Conclusion
    Synthetic performance never really tells the entire story but is a good benchmark of what the system "could" do under the right conditions.

    We used a new version of Sandra for this review and as the charts show there is not much of a change between the 920 between chipsets until we get to memory performance.  Keep in mind the Bloodrage was tuned for only a single bank of memory whereas the LanParty Jr has 2.  There will be a slight hit in memory performance here however a little tuning may help minimize this.
