PerformanceTest Review

PerformanceTest 5.0 (Shareware, $24)

PerformanceTest allows you to objectively benchmark a PC using a variety of different speed tests then compare the results to other computers. Twenty seven individual tests are available in six test suites (CPU, 2D graphics, Hard Disk, Memory access, DirectX 3D graphics and CD/DVD). In addition, there are 6 summary results plus an overall "PassMark Rating" result. The benchmark results are presented as easy to read bar charts so that you don't need to spend hours studying the number to know the result. The tests are timed using high resolution timers, which are accurate to approx. 1 millionth of a second on most PC's. A major advantage is the built-in baseline results that enable computer systems to be compared. These baseline results can be used to determine how fast your computer is in comparison with other computer systems. The shareware version of PerformanceTest contains the baseline results from eight different computer systems. After the software is purchased the user can access PassMark's database of
