I want to do some comparison benchmarks between an MX440 PCI, a 9100 PCI, and a FX 5200 PCI. Here are the programs I can think to use so far:

3DMark2001SE - all cards

3DMark2003 - for 9100 and FX 5200

Codecreatures - 9100 and FX 5200

UT2K3 Demo - all cards

DroneZ - all cards

Dungeon Siege - all cards

Can you guys think of any other benchmarks I can use that can be downloaded (and don't need the actual retail game to use)?

Check out the Comanche4 demo benchmark. I find that it is a more qualified benchmark since it comes from a real game. It is also a very TOUGH benchmark, it'll test your system. :)

You know, I've tried to do the C4 benchmark twice before and I can get in to play the demo, but I have never been able to understand how to run the benchmark.

Do you have to have the full game or can you download a demo to benchmark, like you can with UT2K3?

Sorry,I should have clarified that.You can run the frame counter but it's not a true benchmark.
Bring down the console & type console.showfps 1

You can download the demo.Be careful it is addictive
