• doesn't work with win 7

  cinquestelleMay 19, 2014

  Pros

  any, I can't even open it

  it looks for 128 MB free RAM, and I've 16 GB!

  Summary

  It's a waste of time, don't download it. It was good, maybe.

• a must have

  crazyaaron1984March 14, 2010

  Pros

  great to use to benchmark your video card performance and compare it to others

  Cons

  running the tests takes about 6 to 8 minutes... but not a big deal. just something you shouldnt run if you dont have a few minutes to spare

  Summary

  a must have for checking your video card performance

• Excellent graphics benchmarking program

  Jacky TarOctober 21, 2006

  Pros

  Simple, easy-to-use interface and attractive presentation. Gives the graphics system a thorough workout.

  Cons

  It would be helpful to have some basic memory and CPU tests included, and please find some better way to break down the information groups than the infamous Microsoft nested hierarchy plus symbols.

• Great Benchmarking Program

  sinizterMarch 21, 2006

  Pros

  Very nice tests, and really showed me how my system sized up to others (turns out mine isnt too great). I realize that this will be a great tool to compare results from now and when i get some upgrades. On my p4 3.4 gHz HT with 512 DDR2 ram, ati radeon x300 se, managed to pull off around 6400. Hoping to get some more RAM in the future, as well as a radeon x1300. Great program overally and great to compare with. =)

• Best graphics benchmark for slower computers that i've seen

  The GeekboyFebruary 9, 2006

  Pros

  Told me alot about my graphics software, showed me how good my graphics card was in this laptop.

  Cons

  Only problem that i had with this is that it wouldn't give me a result at the end. I did not see how many 3DMarks i got. Other than that, very good program.

• Ran OK

  jhenry9November 26, 2005

  Pros

  Program downloaded and ran fine. This is my first benchmark. I wish that more people would list results in the reviews so as to compare results: <p>Mine was 19403 but I do not know if it is good or bad for my setup. AMD 64 Series 3500 - Dual ASUS 6600GT SLI - 1GB RAM.

  Cons

  Nothing to compare results to. I tried to compare to my setup but there were no results found. Will try to compare against other systems.

• ATI beats nVidia everytime.

  Redo168July 16, 2005

  Pros

  I'm using an Athlon XP 1666mhz, Radeon 9200-128bit 128MB DDR, 512 MB PC2700 DDR, Asus KT400 chipset board. I had a raw score of 6001! that is since i switched to radeon from that overrated GeForce FX. Switch to ATI. They really know what they're doing.

  Cons

  nothing. my pc performed like a 3D movie maker.

• Everyone should have it!

  AnnoyedDragonJune 14, 2005

  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. <p> <p>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.
