Hi
I just want to test my new rig before I install the second 7950 iceq. Which version is the correct one?

Thanks

It stopped being relevant post 3D Mark 06 IMO but anyway 3D Mark 11 is the one most people use atm the firestrike part seems to be the one most used for comparisons.

Thanks Rroff, that's what I thought but wanted to be sure

Firestrike is not part of 3DMark 11 but running it will give a very good indication of performance as it includes physics tests.

The new 3DMark includes Firestrike and is especially good at testing graphics card performance.

Also worth considering is Heaven Benchmark 4.0 and Valley Benchmark 1.0
