I know of 3DMark but I was interested in the FREE part of the question. I just don't want to pay $20 because I'm curious, maybe if the program was helpful in some way but for all it does, just not worth it for me.

there are elements that are unlocked once you purchase a key, but the base program is free, and quite nice really.

If you dont have a top of the line computer then i would not recommend 3DMark06 because medium power computers will handle it extremely slowly so try 3DMark05

agreed, else the whole "benchmark" concept is rather pointless.

"I scored 100000 3DMarks!!" "On 640x480 16 bit.  Totally pwns!"

Whenever you're comparing epenises w/ those, you're using the defaults anyway.  agreed.

but then wouldn't a stress test like prime95 be a better option?

stressing ur gpu and cpu at same time prime doesnt do gpu stress... and sumtimes running FTT's wont mean real world stability... u could prime all for 32 days straight and still might not be able to run 32m super pi.
