For users who want the highest graphics performance a system can provide they need to add more cards in dual and quad configurations. In these charts we test the best configurations of AMD's CrossFire and Nvidia's SLI. We wanted to take all the guesswork out of who is best in what game. This is the ultimate graphics resource tool for hardcore gamers and power users. Each configuration is run them through a battery of eight intensive tests including 7 real world gaming applications and one synthetic benchmark. * Battlefield 2142 * Dark Messiah of Might and Magic * Doom 3 * Microsoft Flight Simulator X * Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion * Prey * Warhammer: Mark of Chaos * 3DMark06 Our charts are interactive and regularly updated to enable you to make informed buying decisions. By clicking on a particular graphics card's performance bar you will see the test configuration. These charts are the answer to what a user needs: the best multi-video card configuration available for a particular price and application!

Featuring 101 different combinations of single, dual, three-way, and four-way graphics card configurations, our VGA Charts for 2008 include the largest collection of benchmarks we’ve ever published — almost 7,000 scores, in fact. We have five generations of cards covered here, from AMD’s X800-, X1000-, HD 2000-, HD 3000-, and HD 4000-series to Nvidia’s GeForce 6-, 7-, 8-, 9-, and GTX 200-series boards. Our tested resolutions cover 1280x1024, 1680x1050, and 1920x1200—with and without AA/AF. So, whether you’re looking for the best value in graphics for your favorite game or investigating the benefit of multi-card rendering through CrossFire and SLI, this year’s VGA charts are the most comprehensive yet.

Tom's Interactive 2.5" Hard Drive Charts compare notebook hard drives. Here you will find 2.5" UltraATA and Serial ATA hard drives manufactured by Fujitsu, Hitachi, Samsung, Seagate, Toshiba and Western Digital. The charts include all popular capacities starting at 40 GB as well as listing hard drives running at 4,200, 5,400 or 7,200 RPM. 15 benchmarks help to determine application perforrmance and low-level performance, giving you all the throughput, access time, interface and I/O performance results. The 2.5" HDD Charts also include the Cost per Gigabyte calculation and our Price/Performance Index, which helps you to find the best bang for the buck. In addition, we measured power consumption of most the notebook hard drives, so you can see which models are energy efficient and which ones aren't.
