benchmark testing

what programs do you guys use to benchmark your computer?

I recently became interested in benchmarking my new ASUS g53sx laptop just for sheets and giggles.

It's been so long since I ran one, I don't even remember what program it was I used.
I'd almost be suspicious of allowing any program that kind of access now days.

is futuremark still around? that's where i would start.

i seem to remember passmark having something out there as well.

I used to use futuremark exclusively.

But, I haven't run a benchmark in years. I'm not really overclocking anymore, so it's not worth me figuring out my FPS's from one change to the next.

Futuremark 3DMark (more video than subsystem)

(If you'd like a good video stress-tester, try Furmark)
