Used And Free Swap Space? What Is It Exactly?
Squall Leonhart replied to fommof's topic in General Discussion
Swap is the total virtual memory available and used in the system. This is the totals of the System ram and Paging files all up. -
Fiery is right, the AES instructions are memory bandwidth hungry and in most benches show substantial improvements with higher clocked dram when overclocking.
-
once the MemBW dump has started, it does not respond to any clicks, even if you try to repeatedly click the Stop button it doesn't work. seems that the ui priority is too low to catch clicks? spacing the next access a second or 2 could help as well.

Reference Results Outdated
Squall Leonhart replied to Tropenzorro's topic in Benchmarking, system performance
this is not the case on Sandy bridge E. Overclocking is not required to use 1600mhz ram on most boards either, given the dram multiplier is unlocked on most x58 and p67/z68 boards. -
the latest GPU-Z on the other hand, can now read Radeon memory usage under vista and 7, but not XP

Add Current Dma Mode To The Ata Pane
Squall Leonhart replied to Squall Leonhart's topic in Brainstorming
HDDScan is able to show the selected and supported modes, so there must be a way. Maybe the drive itself knows which mode its in. -
Some Glitches Into The Lastest Beta Version 1.85.1653
Squall Leonhart replied to int0x13's topic in Bug reports
if you enable the run with nvidia context menu item (from the nvcp) you should be able to start aida64 with the nvidia gpu enabled. -
I've been looking through Aida, and can't seem to see the current DMA setting on each drive.

Aux Temp? What Does It Measure?
Squall Leonhart replied to ssummerlin's topic in Hardware monitoring
in some setups the AUX temp can actually be a ACPI Temperature from the PSU. -
DXVA was problematic under older drivers
-
its probably the SSD smart stats and the intel drivers.

Yes, i rebooted, then i replaced the old version and it worked again, and switched back and it still didn't. i would surmise the nahalem fxes for windows 8 may have broken something, as a fellow windows 7 user with an x38 had no problems with the upgrade. i should note he didn't reboot :\ it appears to be the aida application itself, using the newer files with the 1632 exe works fine.

block size is inconsistent
Squall Leonhart replied to Squall Leonhart's topic in Benchmarking, system performance
i looked around and found the most common block size is 64KB, so did my benches with that setting. its unfortunate that hd tach has not had an update in years -
everytime you do a benchmark the block size changes making results inconsistent when set to auto. one run might have 128K blocks, and the following on the same drive might have 1MB, resulting in up to 10MB/s difference on some tests. When set to auto, the results of all block sizes should display in the results, rather then the best result.
