Benchmark tools?

[Deific]

Just bought a new rig and wondering which benchmark tools I should download like 3dmark vantage? And is there a 3dmark vantage basic or free version which will allow me to run it repeatedly without purchasing?

i think you only get to use 3dmark once now without purchase, you could get super pi and fritz benchmarks and add your scores to the thread here - http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18108128
i think that furmark gives you a score for the gpu but i'm not sure but it is meant to be a good test of stability and temps.

There is a Basic version which can be downloaded and they will send you a code to use once.

Check some games which have built in benchmarks, ie Far Cry 2.
