MSI Cubi 2 Plus Review

Test System & Memory Performance

The two DDR4-2133 modules we installed in the MSI Cubi 2 Plus allowed for a memory bandwidth of 24.6GB/s when combined with the Core i3-6100T processor. This is similar to the Haswell G3220 and i3-4130 parts using slightly higher clocked DDR3 memory.

The Core i3-6100T processor of the Cubi 2 Plus delivered much weaker L1 cache performance compared to the previous generation Core i3-4130. Perhaps this in part can be attributed to the slight drop in operating frequency.
