Vista Tutorial - Benchmark standards? what program?

Not sure were to put this but here goes,

what is the best programs to check benchmarks?

what is the standard?

Thanks for the help.

Probably not the best ones but the most popular benchmark applications are PC Mark and 3DMark.
Frankly, I never try to benchmark my notebook. Can you believe this?

well.....im not sure i quite understand.

run 3dmark06 & Vantage, for an overall rigs performance.

there are many other benching apps for various components..... what are you looking to bench..??, or do you just wanna test its overall capability..??

i want to test the whole system after the overclocking to see how it is.

i know 3dmark is one of the best for gaming benchmarks.

but i would like something for the whole system not just the gaming aspect.

Hello fadedrs,
Try this one, i think it will do everything you are looking for.
Good luck.

Skunnksmash - thank you i have both of those.

Stoney - forgot about that one, thanks

Your welcome.

ok..... here's a few more. , benching is pretty irrelevant unless there's a general database for results.... numbers dont mean a thing if you have no comparisons.

SuperPI

Street fighter bench

PCMark

another vote for sandra , and also Everest , you benchmark your cpu cache and ram for latency / read / write / copy etc letting you know exactly how well your current O/C is going , if you have to slacken off timings and speed up ram for example these tests will let you know if your going in the right direction or making things worse

a must if your into your overclocking
