CPU Tests

The CPU tests are designed to scale well with CPU frequency increases. They give an indication that a CPU is allowed to work correctly on a given mainboard, the CPU being constant. Kribibench is first.

The LAME benchmark turned in a repeatable 158 second score on the AG8, placing it just behind the AA8 by one second.

This time, the AG8 is able to beat both the AA8 and the D925XCV without much problem, the performance of the DDR memory seeing to that, Realstorm enjoying low latency memory accesses.
