Benchmarking Tools

[GoldFiles]

Hi,

I just built a machine with a Gig of xtra low latency Ram, an fx53, and an x800 xt pe.

I am looking to run a lot of benchmarking programs. However, I am not familiar with any benchmarking programs. I am 3dmark2001 and 2003.

List the names (or links) of benchmarking programs that are popular or that you found useful (or just plain fun). I would like to bench everything: cpu, ram, video, the workz.

Thanks!

Actual games.

3Dmark 2k1
3Dmark 2k3
X-2 The Threat bench
Aquamark
UT2k3
Q3
D3
War3:TFT
NWN
Jedi Academy
my current MMO flavor.( It varies from month to month)

Thats pretty much it, I usually use FRAPS to bench games that have no built in timedemo or benchmark feature.

prime95 has done me well for burning in on new systems.

for benching, i use 3dmark 2001 and 2003, and aquamark.

after that, the best way is to run the games you will be playing and see first hand how it performs.
