Question How to get a Benchmark?

I have a new PC, (Build in Sig) and I wanted to run some benchmark tests on it. I know nothing about benchmarks except what is a "good score". I have seen benchmarks like SYSmark2002, 3DMark2003, AquaMark3, SPECviewperf 7.1, PCMark2002, SANDRA MAX3. I'd like to run benchmarks on stuff like Graphics Processing speed and quality, CPU speed ,ect. What benchmark programs would I need to do that and where can I get them?
Thanx

3DMark (2003, 2005) & PCMark 2004: http://www.futuremark.com/
Aquamark: http://www.aquamark3.com/

Keep in mind that these are only scores to what a system is capable of through the minds of programs and that they are not in any means, a measure of how well your system can play games.
