    Oles cheifs,

    Heres a good place to start for your DLs.

    download from Guru3D.com

    download from Guru3D.com

    It has a nice list of benchmarks and programs too.

    The main ones we all use here are 3d mark 06 and 3d mark Vantage.

    You could try out this game benchmark as well and post up your scores results oles.

    Any of the servers should work. No worries on either one chiefs. Just try one and see if it works. Sometimes the servers do fail so try the other one if it does.

    I also PMed you chiefs oles! :D ;)

    Cheers. :)
