What do you Use to Benchmark Games With?

Hi all,

I've read lots of posts where some of you are listing off framerates from games, that you've benchmarked. I'm curious, what software is out there that allows this? Is it something FRAPS does or is there a dedicated program somewhere? Reason I ask is I have two 4890's and I'm curious to see how one does vs. two in Crossfire in my particular system. All I am really familiar with is the free version of 3dMark05, but that is quite limited and doesn't let me do my own testing on my own games. Thanks for any tips.

Fraps would be number one on the list, if it didn't have an SM4.0 bug. I tried to bench Cryostasis (I think it was Cryostasis) but Fraps wouldn't work with SM4.0 enabled. Only SM3.0. There might be a newer version than the one I used, but I haven't checked. I switched to eVGA precision utility just to display framerates in games.
