Geekbench 2.1 provides a comprehensive set of benchmarks engineered to quickly and accurately measure processor and memory performance. Designed to make benchmarks easy to run and easy to understand, Geekbench takes the guesswork out of producing robust and reliable benchmark results.
Super PI Mod 1.5: is a program designed to calculate Pi up to the 32nd millionth digit after the decimal and is used as both a benchmarking utility and simple stress test to check your overclock before moving forward with more rigorous testing. The world records for this benchmark utility are hotly contested.
In Geekbench, the added capacity is not a factor in improving performance. However the higher capacity does seem to help when comparing the performance of the 12GB sets with the 6GB sets of memory. The slightly better timings of the Vengeance modules allow it to edge out the 12GB Flex modules from OCZ in the Super Pi testing.
