EVEREST Ultimate Edition is an industry leading system diagnostics and benchmarking solution for enthusiasts PC users, based on the award-winning EVEREST Technology. During system optimizations and tweaking it provides essential system and overclock information, advanced hardware monitoring and diagnostics capabilities to check the effects of the applied settings. CPU, FPU and memory benchmarks are available to measure the actual system performance and compare it to previous states or other systems. Furthermore, complete software, operating system and security information makes EVEREST Ultimate Edition a comprehensive system diagnostics tool that offers a total of 100 pages of information about your PC. The software has build-in several tests for memory and CPU/FPU.

Memory performance was very good with all Intel processors. However, the AMD X2 is faster. No major differences are noted between the Intel CPUs. In the FPU/CPU tests, we have greater differences:

The performance of the QX6700 in all tests is superb. It surpassed the XE6800 by 65% (summing all test scores), while the Intel E600 is 92.13% slower! The AMD X2 4600+ doesn't stand a chance when the QX6700 utilizes all its four cores, resulting in 145.96% faster performance.

SiSoftware Sandra (the System ANalyser, Diagnostic and Reporting Assistant) is an information & diagnostic utility. It should provide most of the information (including undocumented) you need to know about your hardware, software and other devices whether hardware or software. It works along the lines of other Windows utilities, however it tries to go beyond them and show you more of what's really going on. Giving the user the ability to draw comparisons at both a high and low-level. You can get information about the CPU, chipset, video adapter, ports, printers, sound card, memory, network, Windows internals, AGP, PCI, PCIe, ODBC Connections, USB2, 1394/Firewire, etc. Sisoft Sandra offers a variety of tests for Memory and CPU.

In Sisoft Sandra 2007 SP1, the QX6700 leads the race. It's 80% faster than the XE6800 and 120% faster than the E6600 (summing up all sisoft sandra scores).

Passing to more CPU/Memory scores, nothing really changes. The QX6700 leads the race, except in the the memory tests.
