Good video benchmark

[jack bauer]

What is a good, and not so long time wise, video benchmarking program. I was using HL2:LC, but it is too variable.

edit: 3dmark or PCmark do not work for me. Windows has an error and shuts it down. I really really hate sp2.

It's not SP2. It's just you. 3dmark (all versions) run fine on all my SP2 computers.

As to benchmarks, it's a little old, but the UT2k4 demo has a benchmark .exe. Several other games also have built in benches, and Comanche 4 even has a feely available " benchmark demo".

haha I love it when people blame things on SP's. I've never had issues with SP2 weird...

Aquamark3 is still good these days. Fairly accurate too with CPU/GPU scores

Fix your computer, then worry about 3D benchmarks.
