Busy with a review, what benchmarks would you guys like to see?

[The Joker]

Hi guys

I'm busy with my x99 review and was wondering what benchmarks you guys would want to see.
I've obviously got the usual suspects in the form of Cinebench, 3Dmark, Valley ect.

Are there any gaming benchmarks you guys would want to see?

Would Metro 2033 be broad enough in terms of foundations laid by other benchmarks? I'm just thinking about the pool of data

EDIT: wow I sounded lame... Um what I'm trying to ask is is metro 2033 enough to get a nice range of other benchmarks to compare with , since its "old" but not so outdated that fps goes into 500+

Yeah, Metro Last Light Redux would be nice to see/hear/read about.

 

[DarthMol]

Maybe some RTS like Total War Rome 2: Attilla?

 

[hideinlight]

Passmark is enough for me, normally translates into real world performance well.

 

[The Joker]

Thanx for the response guys.

I actually decided to add a Witcher 3 bench session.

I don't like using Passmark all that much but I may just use it for the benchmarks.

I would love to see a GTA V benchmark, please.

It has so many graphic quality settings and such, it would make a good contender

Yeah I reckon I'll do a GTA V benchmark, I won't be using the games benchmark though, its a piece of shit lol
I'll design a 5 minute run, using fraps.

Would you mind taking a video of your GTA benching run?

Yeah shouldn't be a problem.
Obviously won't record while doing the benchmark but I'll do a vid of the run before/after the test.

Well if you can get a hold of the E3 version before the bait 'n switch.

Would love to see some RTS benchmarks. Like previously mentioned Rome2/Atilla or even Coh2.

As a lot of you guys suggested I use an rts based benchmark, I decided to buy Total War Shogun 2 Fall of the Samurai and include it in the review.
The game is very cpu intensive, so good call on using it

Edit: lol this game has an in game benchmark..and it's a piece of shit lol

 

[The Joker]

The review is finished.

I'm gonna chat to Jan and ask him if he is willing to run it on the front page. Put a lot of work into it

The Beyond Earth demo also includes the full benchmark, IIRC.
