Sandra Lite is designed as a complex utility for analyzing your computer's software and hardware abilities as well as running various tests to stress out components separately.

Sandra (the System ANalyser, Diagnostic and Reporting Assistant) is an information & diagnostic utility.
SANDRA will provide most of the information (including undocumented) you need to know about your hardware, software and other devices whether hardware or software.
It works along the lines of other Windows utilities, however it tries to go beyond them and show you more of what's really going on. Giving the user the ability to draw comparisons at both a high and low-level. You can get information about the CPU, chipset, video adapter, ports, printers, sound card, memory, network, Windows internals, AGP, ODBC Connections, USB2, 1394/Firewire, etc.
This download launches a cheerfully designed interface with an array of colorful--one might even say sprightly--icons for each of its tools. Its arrangement of tools was nicely categorized for the user's benefit: Computer Maintenance, Module Types (Benchmarks, Hardware, Software, Support), and Program Maintenance. Across the top of the window are tabs for each category that match the icons, and each tab provides access to a set of focused tools. We were very pleased with SiSoftware Sandra's performance during our tests.

Features:

Inclusion of new technologies that ensure our tools remain current.
Increased hardware and software support for existing modules.
Improving the user interface to make it a richer easier user experience.
Filling gaps in the product line in response to our customers' needs
Benchmark UI Change: Select Multi-Threading, Multi-Core, Single-Thread
Benchmark: GP Arithmetic
CUDA optimisations on SM5.x hardware, up to 20% improvement in single-float.
Benchmark: GP Scientific
Reduced CPU check time of results on CUDA - on high-end GPUs the CPU may be fully utilised for minutes.
Benchmark: CPU Cryptography
Optimised x86 AES HWA code path similar to x64, up to 25-50% improvement especially on AMD hardware (e.g. Kaveri). Further updates to x64 AES HWA code path, minor 2-5% improvement.
Benchmark: CPU Scientific: FFT (SFFT/DFFT) further SIMD code-path optimisations (AVX2+FMA, FMA, AVX).
