PassMark Performance Test Got Updated

Did you spend a lot of money on your computer? No matter if you had to rob a bank or not, it would be nice to benchmark your PC to know how fast and reliable it is, and for this you obviously need a benchmarking software. One of the many (good) bechmarks available for the Windows platform is PassMark Performance Test, and since it got a minor update today, I thought this is a very good chance for me to tell you a few things about it...

The update I just told you about helped the 32-bit version of the program to get a new label, and that is 6.1 build 1011, while the 64-bit one didn't get its update yet, remaining at 6.1 build 1008. The new things in the current update are minor fixes, such as search capability for AMD Phenom and Intel Core 2 Extreme in the online databases, the possibility to run multiple instances of the program to allow multiple Advanced Network test to taje place concurrently, as well as minor changes to the license management system.

If you're new to PassMark's Performance Test, then I am sure you'd like to hear what this program has in store for you. The standard test suites include CPU, 2D/3D graphics, disk, memory, and CD/DVD tests, while the advanced customizable test allow you to test performance of your disk and CD/DVD drive, as well as 3D capabilities, but you also get to benchmark networking, memory and multi-tasking performance of your PC.

If you want to get deeper into this program, simply grab your free trial from here. Once the 30 days evaluation period ends, you can purchase the program for $24(obviously, there's no problem if you want to purchase it earlier), but feel free to check the official sales page, first of all.
