AMD N-Bench

AMD N-Bench provides you with a testing tool that can analyze your system’s CPU and graphics card and evaluate the performance of each of these components. As its name implies, it is intended for AMD processors only and can be of great use to anyone who wants to test the capabilities of their system.

The application comes with a user-friendly interface, where you can view detailed information regarding the system CPU type and its frequency, the GPU card and the amount of available virtual memory, as well as RAM usage statistics.

AMD N-Bench features a set of tests meant to overload the CPU and the graphics card, in order to determine their real capabilities. The ‘demo’ mode is designed for evaluating the real-time display performance of 3D graphics, while you enjoy multiple 3D graphics and music.

The application can be set to play the 3D movies continuously and the ‘protect mode’ enables you to pause the test whenever you want to. With the ‘Challenge Mode’ activated, you have the possibility to view the results of each performed test before proceeding to the next one.

The ‘Benchmark’ mode measures the performances of the processor, such as the integer operations and the floating point arithmetic. A total of 8 tests can be performed for CPU and 3D benchmarking (special effects and display resolution) and you can choose which one should the application run and which it should skip. In order to obtain an accurate overall score, all the tests must be executed.

The test results are displayed numerically, allowing you to compare them with the ones of a standard configured PC and get an idea of how well your system behaves in stress conditions.

Using on a DirectX 9 3DCG rendering engine, AMD N-Bench can only test computers equipped with AMD processors and DirectX 9 compatible video cards. Its main purpose is to run several tests on your system, in the attempt to investigate the overall performance of the CPU and the graphics card.
