Ok I got my Epox 8K7A with a T-bird 1 gig running at 1.4 (140x10.0) (280fsb) and 384 megs Crucial PC2100 DDR running XP Pro. I wanna test this baby and see where I stand. Any suggestions?

Try two different benchmarks: 3DMark2001 and SiSoft Sandra. The Sandra benchmarks are based on what THEY have recorded vs what is in your computer, but what the 3DMark will enable you to do is to compare your benchmarks online with other people's.

well I am familiar with both 3dmark2000 and 2001 and use them on a regular basis. I have always stayed away from Sandra because the benches really seem unrealistic.. Wish sandra hada way like 3dmark to compare online
