AIDA64 Spring Update

SHA3-512 cryptographic hash benchmark

A new cutting edge 64-bit multi-threaded hash benchmark utilizing AVX, AVX2, AVX-512, BMI2, and XOP optimizations. For legacy systems the benchmark is available in 32-bit version fully optimized for old processors like AMD K5, K6, K7, K8, K10 as well as the whole Intel Pentium family. The old SHA1 hash benchmark and the VP8 benchmark have been retired from the main set of AIDA64 benchmarks. However, the SHA1 benchmark can still be used from the GPGPU Benchmark Panel.

Optimized 64-bit benchmarks for AMD Zen 2 “Matisse” processors

AIDA64 CPUID Panel, Cache & Memory Benchmark panel, GPGPU Benchmark panel, System Stability Test, and all cache, memory and processor benchmarks are fully optimized for AMD Zen 2 “Matisse” high-performance desktop processors as well as for AMD Epyc “Rome” server and workstation processors, utilizing AVX2, FMA3, AES-NI and SHA instructions. Detailed chipset information for the integrated memory controllers and integrated south bridges of various AMD Zen 2 processors. Preliminary support for PCI Express 4.0 controllers and devices. Preliminary support for AMD Zen 2 APUs and AMD “Navi” GPUs.
