Decent CPU Review Procedure?

[DynamoNED]

So, AMD Gaming is having starting a Social Reviewers Program, where they gave away 100 A8-3870K APU's, and I was lucky enough to get one. I want to do the review right, so I looked over some review procedures at some of my favorite sites and came up with this review protocol using the programs I have:


Processor Specs/CPU-Z/GPU-Z/W.E.I.
Test System Specs
System Benchmarks

Sisoft Sandra 2012 SP4a
CPU Benchmarks


Maxon CineBench 11.5
7-Zip
WinZip
iTunes 10.4 - Encoding
x264 HD 5.0 - Video Encoding

GPU Benchmarks


3DMark Vantage/3DMark11
Unigine Heaven 3.0

Game Benchmarks

S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
Just Cause 2
Batman: Arkham City


So, what do you all think? Comprehensive enough? Any other (preferably free) benchmarks you would recommend? Thanks in advance for your feedback, and I'll be sure to post the review here!

OCCT and SuperPi are good for CPU stress testing as well :up:

Here's the last CPU cooler review I did:

Prime95 would give it a good thrashing.
Also, Crysis (I, not II) has been (and still is) used as a gaming benchmark.

Appreciate the feedback! I've added your suggestions to the review procedure.
