Hello everyone, I'm new to the HardOCP Forum, I've been a reader of the HardOCP reviews/news for a few years but never really been too involved with forums but now I decided to join up and get involved since I do visit this page on a daily basis.

I wanted to ask for your opinion on a certain matter... I know there are tons of benchmarking softwares out there but I feel most of them lack something. I feel they don't portray the big picture, for example Futuremark, I mean it's great to have the best score on there... but I feel that sometimes you can kind of "cheat" to get higher scores and sometimes the score doesn't really translate into "real world performance"..

Now that being said, I wanted to ask you guys, if you were going to create a benchmarking software intended for "all human beings" not just hardware enthusiasts... what would you measure and how would you try and translate the results so that even "newbies" could understand what the score really means to him?

PS. English is not my first language so no grammar nazis plz! =)
