I use ATI Tool for this (but ATI tool doesn't have a timed average framerate count.....basically just let it run for a while, and see where your average frames settle out at). good thing about ATI tool, though, is that it doesn't stop, meaning you can use it for stress testing your system. The GPU of course is getting hot, but the CPU is being pushed as well. For those wanting to test their heat levels, it's the dual GPU+CPU heat stress you have to find. Not just one or the other.

that just tells me that once you meet a certain level of CPU performance, your GPU is the limiting reagant. So, your AMD was that limit, and all your current toil and sweat has done little for your GPU framerate......pity. :4

Re: Benchmarks / Overclocking / E-peen!
Just out of curiosity.....I scored an 8500 on 3dmark06..ran it a few days ago.
I have:
EVGA 8800 GTS w/640 mb ram
2 gigs of ballistix DDR2 800 PC2 6400 Ram
E6600 intel processor
Nothing is overclocked. If I were to overclock these things, how much of a difference would it make in terms of 3dmark06 score?

Re: Benchmarks / Overclocking / E-peen!
probably see matching % gains in your 3dMark, as you increase your GPU OC's (ram and core). Probably see 1/2 of the % gain on a CPU overclock. Won't see much gain, at all, from messing with your RAM timings (in the 1-2% range up or down).
