Benchmarking tools

I'm not really sure where to post this, but this seemed like a relevant spot. Just as the title says I was wondering what kind of tools/programs people use to benchmark their systems and see how well they can perform.

Games, Cinebench, those various GPU benchmarks, Super Pi

There are a whole slew of them.

AIDA64
7zip
3Dmark
Unigine Heaven/Valley
HandBrake
Cinebench
Passmark

In addition to games and whatnot.

Some suggestions

AIDA64 because it's a good monitor program as well as having a decent benchmark module + graphing.

Heaven/Valley/Firestrike because they are popular so you can always find a very similar setup to compare.

Realbench/PCMark 8 again for popular system benchmarks.

CrystalDiskMark/ATTO for storage tests as well as modules from the above.
