Here's a great and free app for viewing information about your Graphics. Also contains benchmarks, framebuffer dumps, device ids, etc...

Many OpenGL extensions, as well as extensions to related APIs like GLU, GLX, and WGL, have been defined by vendors and groups of vendors. The extension registry is maintained by SGI and contains specifications for all known extensions, written as modifications to the appropriate specification documents.

Does this one have a compatibility issue with 10.8.3? I have tried this on several hacks and it always crashes when attempting to run the benchmark tests using Core mode. I'm using a properly recognized GTX 650 GPU.
 
It would be great to have explanations of options, OpenGL versions, tests and maybe a write-up about benchmarking process. I, for one, still didn't know what tests should run and what test should fail on what renderer engine, OpenGL profile, and why it's always fail to test Core profile...
 
Hi ... Tony,
After seeing your note, I have been encouraged that it might be fun to perform this benchmark on my hacintoh.
Here is what I get on my hacintoch after having the rsult .

1. Overview for my graphic board (ASUS HD7970-DC2-3GD5 ) - recognized within this tool
2. My score for this tool
No so bad with HD7970. But I hope much more score will be expected with coming GTX780 (?) in this 3rd quoter.

Faster4Run Change your OpenGL profile at the top from "Compatibility" to "Core" and run test again.

Should now test passed up to Open GL 3.2 (Osx limit)
