We just got word from Oliver Baltuch from Futuremark that they have just released a new service on the YouGamers.

The feature allows you to quickly determine which hardware provides the best bang for buck, as you can see in the screenshot below.

As far as graphics cards go, the ATI Radeon HD 3850 and Nvidia GeForce 8600 GT share the top spot as the best bang for buck cards based on 3DMarks per dollar. Without much surprise, Intel's Core 2 Quad Q6600 processor is by far the best bang for buck quad-core processor.

Head on over to the YouGamers website here and check it out!
