3DMark06 is currently the newest version, and if your computer supports at least DX9.0c then I would use that, if it doesn't then I would go with a previous version such as 05 or 03. 3DMark06 isn't just for SLI setups though, it's for any computer that has DX9.0c or higher.

As for other benchmarking apps, there are a lot of system benchmarks out there that also test RAM, hard drive, etc performance. Example programs would be PCMark (same company), Performance Test, and several others are out there as well.
