While doing research for a new PC, I stumbled across this great website. You can test all the main elements of your PC. There are over 24,000,000 posted benchmarks so far with over 300,000 components tested. You can look up the results for any particular part you might own, and see it's value based on price versus performance.
It gave my computer a Value of 66% which is Good and my laptop 69%. I don't do any gaming and when I ask my cpu to do something it does it without hesitation so numbers really don't mean anything to me.
Ran it and it would not finish after 2 hours. Could not close the app, so had to end the process in task manager and reboot, which hung up saying my PC was logging off. So I had to force a power off and restart. Did not do any damage, but scary. Deleted it!
Maybe it couldn't handle all that power.
More like it's too old, like 8 years, with a Core I7 920, 24GB of DDR3 RAM and 4 Samsung 500GB SSD's. One OS on each drive and one for backups, liquid cooled. Suits me well...
Sorry to hear that. I wonder what the problem was. I haven't tried it out myself. I plan to at some point as I just bought a new PC with mega horsepower except for the graphics card.
It's still a useful site for those about to buy new parts or a new PC, and has a section for selecting the parts that have been tested in real life conditions along with comments from users.
