That's a good point Cecil.
Have to agree testing the PC in more than one aspect will reveal how well it does and to also test the skill of the participant. That in itself goes back to the beginner or novice being able to learn the basics or improve in more than one aspect of our cyber-sport.
To do that, a benching program such as SiSandra or Everest could be used BUT to use all the available benching progs, you have to buy it.
One I can suggest we've seen and probrably used before (I have) is NucleaRus MC. RAM timings along with the CPU does matter in that bench. If you've never tried it before, it's a good proggy.
As for GPU, well, there's alot of stuff out there that could be used that either does a blend of benchmarks or is a pure and simple GPU bench.
Ideas?
