Assess processor performance in domestic usage environment with multi-pronged testing approach.
MCS CPU Benchmark, the latest version of the CPU performance benchmark program from MCS Studios. This unique program provides an accurate and consistent assessment of the performance of your processor in general home environment usage. MCS CPU Benchmark can be easily obtained and it is easy to install and run. It contains five tests: file compression, file encryption, image processing, audio conversion, and video.
The ease of use of this application is the only thing that is good about it.
Cons
It does not benchmark properly, It did not comply with the expectations of a benchmarking application, that is for it to use all the resources of what it is testing to get accurate results, it was like it wasn't even running.
Summary
Bottom line, this program will not give you accurate results. Use one that is better suited for its environment.
Good, Fast, Easy Benchmarking Tool

Pros
Displays cpu info.
<p>Very simple and fast series of tests to find relative speed improvements in your cpu while overclocking
Cons
The "compare scores with others on the web" option is out of date
Summary
might be usefull, doubt it though.

Pros
before I start, i must stress i have an extremely low tollerance level to most things, if it doesnt do what i want, pfft! THIS PROGRAM IS GONE
Cons
downloaded and ran this, i first got a bit shakey on it when i looked in the options and it said configure my CPU with a tick next to it... huh? configure my CPU? disabled that, ran it, sat back and it returned a "rating" of 332 point something for my 1.8 gig P4.
<p>
<p>What ever the hell that means, i looked at their online comparisons, it was a dogs breakfast. i am still no wiser about my cpu and how fast it is actually running.
<p>
<p>like am i just fussy or something, why the hell doesnt the program just spit out a result saying "your cpu is running at the equilavent of yadda yadda.."
<p>
<p>time waster, give it a whirl, you might be able to understand what it is telling you but i found it useless.
