As part of my journey as a technology journalist, I've used a lot of benchmarks. I've also written a fair amount of benchmark suites for the various publications I've worked with and most of which are not publically available. However, the 2007 Custom PC Benchmarks Suite is free to use by everyone and of course, written by me.

Custom PC Benchmarks Suite 2007

The suite is a 338MB download and uses nothing but Open Source software to perform real world tests on the Windows platform. The documentation contains complete information on the tests involved, including how to use it from the command line for automated testing.

Some people have been having issues with using the benchmark suite - mainly, it crashing on Image 36 in GIMP. This should now be fixed in the latest install (above). However, if you have previously downloaded the suite, you can download the latest executable, and just copy it over the top.
