Sandra 2013: For Windows 8 including 3 new benchmarks

This is some great news for those of you (and us) using Sandra for system testing and benchmarks.  Some of the new features of Sandra 2013 are listed below.

New GP (GPU/APU/CPU) Cache/Memory Latency benchmark
Benchmark all the different memories (global, constant, shared/local, private) of modern GPGPUs using the 3 access patterns (in-page random, full random, sequential/linear) in OpenCL and CUDA. Please ask if you need details.

New GP (GPU/APU/CPU) Cache Bandwidth benchmark
Benchmark all the different memories (global, constant, shared/local, private) of modern GPGPUs and measure L1, L2 and L3 cache bandwidths in OpenCL and CUDA. Please ask if you need details.

Memory Latency benchmark: code/instruction caches latencies
A brand new benchmark using its 3 dedicated access patterns ("in-page" thus avoiding "out-of-page" latencies, "full random" and "linear/sequential") to fully test code caches performance. Please ask if you need details.

Brand new style for Windows 8
So you feel "at home" in Windows 8 / Server 2012.  The previous theme (Aero/Metal) is included. Windows 7, Vista and XP are still fully supported!

Personally I can't wait to try out the new version.
