AIDA64 Adds Support for Intel Panther Lake CPUs and AVX-512 Benchmarks for AMD Ryzen CPUs
7/26/2024AIDA64 Adds Support for Intel Panther Lake CPUs and AVX-512 Benchmarks for AMD Ryzen CPUs
AIDA64, a popular hardware diagnostic and benchmarking tool, has just released its latest version, AIDA64 Extreme 7.35. This update brings significant enhancements, including support for Intel’s next-gen Panther Lake CPUs and AVX-512 benchmarks for AMD Ryzen CPUs.
Expanding Compatibility to Next-Gen CPU Lineups
AIDA64 is known for its comprehensive monitoring of component performance. With each release, it often hints at future architectures by adding support for upcoming CPUs. The newest version continues this trend, targeting next-gen architectures.
CheckMate Benchmark and AVX Enhancements
The standout feature in AIDA64 Extreme 7.35 is the CheckMate benchmark. This multi-threaded benchmark assesses your CPU’s branch prediction unit. Leveraging the AVX (Advanced Vector Extensions) set—specifically AVX, AVX2, and AVX-512—it accelerates calculations. Notably, CheckMate now supports AMD’s latest Ryzen AI 300 APUs, allowing thorough testing of the new mobile platform.
