benchmark software

[fobose]

Hello,

I've just upgraded my 8800GT to a 570 GTX. I wanted to benchmark it but not sure what the current best app is to use, what do you guys recommend?

P.S what software do people use nowadays to get temp readings etc?

Thanks

Heaven 4.0 to bench the GPU.
Evga Precision X to monitor the temps, as well as OCing it.

Heaven and MSI afterburner.

Plenty of benches around though.

Many thanks for the replies guys I am not really in to overclocking any more, besides I presume my GPU is bottled necked by my CPU anyway?

I ran a 8500 @4ghz and P5K premium for 6 years as my main rig till June this year. Never missed a beat (now it's my server) I was after new tech and was advised a new gpu would bottleneck me. It did badly. Ergo a change to Haswell. I didn't realise just how much things have moved on (hardly surprising in 6 years ) Enjoy your new card and unleash it in a new rig.
