I did this a few years ago, but now since many of us got a new computer (including me
), I think that it's time we have a new one.
To benchmark your computer download
Passmark PerfomanceTest v6.1, install it, and then go to Tests -> Run all tests
If possible, when you post your results, upload your baseline file too (File -> Save as Baseline...) so that we can compare your results to our results. In the end, we can also compare all the baselines posted here to see who has the best (or worse) computer.
So, I'll start by posting the overall rating of the best computer in my house:
For detailed results look here:
http://mike.thedt.net/temp/PerformanceTest.zip
Inside the zip you will find a detailed picture of the results, a detailed .txt file of the results, a detailed .html file of the results and my baseline file (Deutero.pt) so that you can compare your results to mine.
Some tips for better results:
1) Restart your computer before benchmarking.
2) After running all tests, run some tests manually: Complex 3D and all the memory tests. You will usually get better results.
Note: If this belongs to T&T then please move it.
