Cinebench
CINEBENCH is a real-world test suite that evaluates your computer's performance capabilities. It's the perfect tool to compare CPU and graphics performance across various systems and platforms (Windows and Mac OS X). And best of all: It's completely free. The test procedure consists of two main components - the graphics card performance test and the CPU performance test. The CPU test scenario uses all of your system's processing power to render a photorealistic 3D scene (from the viral "No Keyframes" animation by AixSponza). This scene makes use of various algorithms to stress all available processor cores. The GPU test scenario uses a complex 3D scene depicting a car chase (by renderbaron) which measures the performance of your graphics card in OpenGL mode. The performance depends on various factors, such as the GPU processor on your hardware, but also on the drivers used. The result given is measured in frames per second (fps). The higher the number, the faster your graphics card.
