I've been noticing that alot of sites including TPU use Starcraft 2 to benchmark graphics cards but i couldnt find any benchmark tool on in-game option. Can anyone tell me how to benchmark it?

You save a "regular game", preferably played by the pros (with lots of units and control and shits), and then use the said file to bench all your cards from. Everyone will have a different game, so their scores will be different, but it usually involves 1v1 200/200 fights, so there will be some similarities between different reviewers.
