If you just search in this forum you'll find it all.

3dmark 2001 for Direct3D video cards.
quake arena for OpenGL video card performance.
Sandra for cpu, memory, HD.

www.madonion.com has 3dmark2001
www.3dfiles.com (all game sites have this demo) has quake arena demo
I forgot where I got sandra from.

If you have questions using them once you dl, feel free to ask.:)
