The trend continues today as 3DMark06 provides consumers with a solid synthetic benchmark geared for performance and comparison in the 3D gaming realm. This remains one of the most sought after statistics, as well as an excellent tool for accurate CPU comparison, and it will undoubtedly be used for years to come.

It uses DirectX 10 exclusively so if you are running Windows XP, you can forget about this benchmark. Along with being a very capable graphics card testing application, it also has very heavily multi-threaded CPU tests, such Physics Simulation and Artificial Intelligence (AI), which makes it a good all-around gaming benchmark.  CrysisCrysis v1.21 Resolution: 1680x1050 Anti Aliasing: 0 Quality Settings: High Global Settings: DX10 / 64-Bit Test 1: Ice benchmark_CPU2 demo Comparison: FPS (Frames per Second) Still one of the most hardware intensive game on the market today, Crysis has been chosen for its obvious ability to be able to showcase the differences between platforms and to showcase just how far one will need to go in the quest for maximum performance. The game also features the renowned CryEngine, the power behind the incredible graphics, which is expected to be foundation of future titles.

Using the included Benchmarking Tool, we ran the Long Ranch demo in DX10 mode at 1680x1050 with all settings set to very high.  Street Fighter 4Street Fighter 4 Demo Resolution: 1680x1050 Anti-Aliasing: 0X Graphic Settings: High Test 1: Built-in Timedemo Comparison: FPS (Frames per Second) Street Fighter IV is a 2008 arcade game produced by famous developer Capcom, that has finally been released on the PC platform. This game has not been 'ported' since the Street Fighter IV arcade machines actually have PC internals, with circa 2005 components. As a result, the version of the game released on the PC is considered the definitive version. With a fully multi-threaded engine and an astounding hybrid 2D/3D graphics style, this game is sure to please all fans of the Street Fighter series.  World in ConflictWorld in Conflict v1.010 Resolution: 1680x1050 Anti-Aliasing: 4X Anisotropic Filtering: 4X Graphic Settings: Very High Test 1: Built-in Benchmark Comparison: FPS (Frames per Second) One of the most visually stunning real-time strategy games in recent history, World in Conflict can really push systems to the brink, which is what we attempt by running the game in DirectX 10 mode at 1680x1050 with all settings maxed out. For this test we used the in-game benchmarking tool.  | ||
