Application Benchmarks
Both 3DSMax and WinRAR heavily depend on CPU and memory performance, while storage performance seems to be irrelevant. However, we found that storage performance is still important when WinRAR finishes decompressing files and still has to move it from a temporary location to its final destination.

This is a great article!

mmm yours memory tests don't convince me. You should run, for example, Winrar AND Lame IN PARALLEL/SIMULTANEOUS (i.e multitasking), otherwise, caches don't are flushed (and it's when dual channel really is important). Note that it's not a superflous situation; under normal use a system commonly have several huge memory applications run concurrently (word, browser whith a lot of tabs open, anti-virus, etc. )
