benchmarking tools?

WHERE CAN I FIND SOFTWARE THAT YOU USE TO TELL HOW MANY FPS MY SYSTEM IS GETTING, WHEN PLAYING QUAKE3, UNREAL TORNEMENT ECT. THANKS

You need serious help, kid.

There is no separate program for benchmarking games. The games themselves have their own internal benchmarking commands. For instance, in Quake 3 go to the console and type "timedemo 1" then run a demo. After it is done, bring the console down again to see your score.

I think Unreal Tournament is just "/timedemo 1" in the console and that is it. It runs the flyby demo and gives you a score. Unfortunately the flyby is not very similar to a real game.

Where or how did you find this out?

[Freon]

Well, search around the internet a little and it shouldn't be too much trouble. "Unreal Tournament benchmarking" or "Quake 2 benchmarking", etc.

Otherwise, if you say exactly what games you want to benchmark, I'm sure some people here will know. But you have to name the exact game because it is different (or sometimes not possible) for different games.
