Just curious, why would you want to disable sound? Unless it's not very common to play the game with sound, you'd get a much more rounded stress test (of all system components) if you ran a benchmark of a game with the same settings as a normal play session.

It's like doing time trials on a racetrack with racing tires, and then swapping them out for your street tires on the day of the race :P
