3dmark06 for benching..

cpu-z to check out vitals on your speed, cpu, fsb, voltage..

techup gpu-z to check out ur video card info and oc info.

Then I guess there is rivatuner or CCC to configure and use your gpu's.

super pi for calculations

..umm there is more but those are common things we all use/

Download a free copy of 3dmark06 --you can run graphics and cpu tests and it gives u a score at the end. Run each time you tweak ur system and see how high u can get.

I think the highest on here now is 24,000 3dmarks// make sure to add ur score in the 3dmark thread.

I was reading bout this one guy who updated his BIOS firmware prior to installing windows. Did he just put thedrivers on a cd from some computer and then updated the BIOS before installing windows?
