Performance Test

There's no question that some of us are, uh, obsessed with with need for speed. Performance Test not only allows you to measure your computer against other computer benchmarks in a variety of areas including multiple CPU, video and disk tests.

In addition to your computer's results you can load a variety of test results from other computers. If you want more benchmarks you can download more from the vendors site or import them from tests run on other machines.

Beyond just seeing how your computer stacks up you can use the results to tweak to your hearts content and identity components that need to be upgraded to squeeze that last bit of performance out of your system.
