Benchmarking My System

[Murdo]

:roll:

Hi.

Was looking to do some benchmarking for the first time and wonder...

What sort of benchmark software should i be using and what sort of results should i expect to get from my current setup. I know the GPU will let it down somewhat, but that will be sorted real soon.

Also, whats the best stuff to use to monitor my CPU, Temps etc....

Any heads up would be cool. I'll post back results once i've got it mastered.


Thanks for looking.

The best benchmark would be the games/programs you commonly use. After that, scores are pretty much useless.

If you use a game, you should shoot for about 30 fps for the best experience. Your CPU shouldn't hold you back much (and even less if you overclock it). For the most part, the GPU has become the major player in game speed.

Cool.

Look like its time to part with some hard earned cash.

Thanks
