AIDA64 - CPUHash

SHA instructions set was introduced by Intel at late 2016 releasing 2nd generation Atom (Goldmont) CPUs.

But Intel has never implemented those instructions ever since, so there is no "HW" acceleration of those SHA instructions in Intel's desktop/ server CPUs.

RyZen CPUs are the first ones to introduce a 2nd AES unit inside and SHA specific hardware implementation for the execution of that instruction set.

AIDA64 leverages that specific hardware, executing in native form the SHA instructions and the difference is huge, as you can clearly see.
