neowin_hipster Posted March 22, 2002 Share Posted March 22, 2002 Want an awesome graphics benchmark. Check this out: (40MB but must have!!!) http://gamershq.madonion.com/download/?3dm...dmark2001.shtml Most people download it to test drivers. Others download it to see graphics. There are two modes, benchmark and demo. Demo is pure eye candy, its like watching a movie. Benchmark is also visually neat but shows frames per second and other usefull data. Everyone has it. No one doesn't. Get it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hexum Posted March 22, 2002 Author Share Posted March 22, 2002 I am a graphic designer as well, and I kept seeing the word "benchmark" and I was just curious if it had anything to do with overclocking or something like that, but I guess not. Thank you for the explanation......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
