In March 2007, Futuremark launched a website specialising in news and reviews of PC games, called YouGamers. [6] In January 2008, Futuremark announced the formation of the Futuremark Games Studio. [7] In August 2008, at the Leipzig Games Convention, Futuremark Games Studio announced details of its first game, Shattered Horizon. [8]
3DMark 11 included four Graphics tests - Deep Sea 1 & 2, High Temple 1 & 2 - for measuring GPU performance, a Physics test measuring CPU performance, and a Combined test targeting CPU and GPU performance. 3DMark 11 included a Demo that adds a soundtrack to the visual content.

Abuses akin to ballot stuffing of favourable reviews by the seller (known as incentivized reviews), or negative reviews by competitors, need to be policed by the review host site. Indeed, gathering fake reviews has become big business. [2] In 2012, for example, fake book reviews have been revealed as significantly affecting ratings on Amazon.
[1] The aim is to approximate how fast a computer will perform when solving real problems. It is a simplification, since no single computational task can reflect the overall performance of a computer system. Nevertheless, the LINPACK benchmark performance can provide a good correction over the peak performance provided by the manufacturer.
[1] System designers building parallel computers, such as Google's hardware, pick CPUs based on their performance per watt of power, because the cost of powering the CPU outweighs the cost of the CPU itself. [2] Spaceflight computers have hard limits on the maximum power available and also have hard requirements on minimum real-time performance.
CrystalDiskMark is an open source disk drive benchmark tool for Microsoft Windows from Crystal Dew World.Based on Microsoft's MIT-licensed Diskspd tool, [2] this graphical benchmark is commonly used for testing the performance of solid-state storage.
Geekbench began as a benchmark for Mac OS X and Windows, [3] and is now a cross-platform benchmark that supports macOS, Windows, Linux, Android and iOS. [4]In version 4, Geekbench started measuring GPU performance in areas such as image processing and computer vision.
The VPAM scale as of 2009 runs from 1 to 14, with 1-5 being soft armor, and 6-14 being hard armor. [1] Tested armor must withstand three hits, spaced 120 mm (4.7 inches) apart, of the designated test threat with no more than 25 mm (0.98 inches) of back-face deformation in order to pass.
