Games with Built-in Benchmarks
Test your PC with games you already own — and the free tools we run on every ByteNova build.
Why benchmark?
A quick benchmark on a new PC confirms everything performs the way it should and that temperatures are healthy. Save your results — running the same test months later shows if something has slowed down, like dust build-up or a driver problem.
Write down: average FPS, 1% low FPS, the settings and resolution you used, and max CPU and GPU temperatures.
