Like we said, memory speed has a huge impact on the performance of the A8-7600, namely on its on-die GPU with 384 GCN shaders. Aida tests reveal that memory read bandwidth and memory latency improve when faster memory modules are installed, but more importantly real life performance in games reflects this fact.

Here is some info about Aida 64 memory tests. Memory bandwidth benchmarks (Memory Read, Memory Write, Memory Copy) measure the maximum achievable memory data transfer bandwidth. The code behind these benchmark methods are written in Assembly and they are extremely optimized for every popular AMD, Intel and VIA processor core variants by utilizing the appropriate x86/x64, x87, MMX, MMX+, 3DNow!, SSE, SSE2, SSE4.1, AVX, and AVX2 instruction set extension. The Memory Latency benchmark measures the typical delay when the CPU reads data from system memory. Memory latency time means the time ‘penalty’ measured from issuing the read command until the data arrives to the integer registers of the CPU.
