SiSoftware lance une nouvelle version de son programme SANDRA qui passe donc à la version 2016. Plusieurs nouveautés ont été ajoutés au SANDRA 2016 : il est par exemple maintenant possible de tester les performances de sa machine lors de la manipulation d’images et de photos via deux nouveaux benchmarks dédiés au GPU et au CPU. Les benchmarks simulent plusieurs traitements d’images et diverses applications de filtres afin de tester les performances de la machine lors de ce type d’utilisation. D’autres nouveautés sont également de la partie comme on peut le voir dans le changelog ci-dessous.

Liste des changements apportés par Sandra 2016.01.22.10 (en anglais) :
* Two Brand-new benchmark modules:
– GPGPU Image Processing (common filters: blur, sharpen, sobel, median/de-noise) supporting all modern interfaces (CUDA, OpenCL, DirectX ComputeShader)
– CPU Image Processing (common filters: blur, sharpen, sobel, median/de-noise) supporting all modern vectorised SIMD instruction sets (FMA, AVX, SSE2)
Image/photo manipulation is an increasing common task with GPGPUs increasingly used to accelerate filter processing in popular programs (e.g. Photoshop). This brand-new benchmark set tests the performance of various filters:
Blur: 3×3 Convolution Filter
Sharpen: 5×5 Convolution Filter
Motion Blur: 7×7 Convolution Filter
Edge Detection: Horizontal + Vertical 5×5 Sobel Filter
De-Noise: 5×5 Median Filter
Image/photo manipulation is greatly accelerated through vectorised SIMD instruction sets (FMA, AVX, SSE2) operating on multiple pixels at the same time, but also increasingly accelerated by GPGPUs in modern programs (e.g. Photoshop). This brand-new benchmark set supports all GPGPU interfaces as well as SIMD instruction sets.
* GPGPU Update: OpenGL CS (4.3+) support in addition to CUDA, OpenCL, DirectX CS
– Ported GPGPU benchmarks to OpenGL (4.3+) Compute Shader (Fractals, Crypto, Image Processing)
* GPGPU Update: FP16/half-float precision benchmarks (Financial, Scientific)
– Ported GPGPU benchmarks to FP16 (half-float) precision on supporting hardware (e.g. Intel Skylake, AMD Fury, nVidia X1, etc.)
* Transcoding Update: H.265/HEVC transcoding
– Support for H.265/HEVC transcoding benchmark testing using Windows’ MFC and thus able to use hardware transcoders of modern APUs (Intel Skylake, nVidia 960 GTX, etc.)
– New VC1 high-bitrate master for transcoding, 1080p and UHD/4k (commercial versions) – to benchmark UHD/4K, 3K, 1440p transcoding.
* CPU Update: 64-bit Integer Dhrystone
– 64-bit Integer Dhrystone port measuring 64-bit integer workload performance. Aggregated Dhrystone score made of « legacy » 32-bit and new 64-bit scores.
* Updated System benchmark: Overall Score 2016
– Added CPU Crypto benchmark (to match GPGPU Crypto benchmark)
– Added GPGPU Memory Latency benchmark (to match System Memory Latency benchmark)
– Updated weights to match modern devices (mobile, laptop, desktop and server)
* Support for Windows 10* RTM
– Updated to the latest tools & libraries for Windows 10 RTM, with various minor compatibility changes and support for new APIs, technologies as
well as hardware.
– Updated resources for high-DPI (retina+) up to 200% 192ppi or higher – e.g. huge 256×256 icons.
