pc benchmarking software ??
« on: June 10, 2003, 10:55:54 AM »
What's good to use?

I know there is:
- SiSoft Sandra
- Futuremark (3DMark and PCMark)

What else is out there that would be a reliable bench mark?

3DMark is no longer considered a valid benchmark.  NVidia threatened to sue Futuremark.  So Furturemark now allows video card companies (specifically NVidia) to include "optimizations" which falsely increase the score in the tests.

The whole debacle is pretty disgusting.
