Software to rate a PC's performance

JaseUK · 31 Dec 2010 at 15:01

Hi Guys,
I have 2 PC's that are both running Windows XP and I was wanting to see which performs the best out of the two.

I appreciate Windows Vista and 7 have their own built in performance software but is there any decent free software out there to test XP?

cheers

3Dmark. I think the latest versions all need 64bit though. Bound to be able to find something out there.

ah yeah 3DMark06 forgot about that

cheers

Or PCMark if you want to test more than just gaming-type performance...

Best in what way? gaming? number crunching/seti?

Superpi for the cpu/memory, 3dmark for the graphics.

Do you know the specs of each?

They're both low end spec'd pc's and I just wanted a rough idea as to which was better.

intel burn test
super pi
3DMark06

should hopefully give me an idea

cheers guys
