Version: 3DMark2001 1
"Everyone should have it!"
Pros: If your looking to test your PC performance against some of your favorit oldies that still give the modern PC a run for its money I can't recommend this enough! Not only is this entertaining but it gives you a clear view of what your computer is capable of, it may not have the flash and glory of the 03 and 05 versions but it still boasts graphics most games use that will leave you in awe such as the nature scene. Also unlike the 03/05 version this benchmark is berly restricted so contains all the visual content, the very specific testing options are still disabled so its still worth purchasing but if you just enjoy computer eye candy the restricted version is all you need. I'd recommend this for anyone who wants to test their computer for gaming but doesn't have razor edge hardware or for anyone who just enjoys 3D graphic demonstrations.
If you want a additional pixel shader test be sure to check out the futuremark website for 3dmark 2001 SE which is also a free download.
Cons: Cannot really think of any problems other than Futuremark should of given more insentive to purchase the program as it provides allot even with its restrictions.
