test program

Is there a program that allows you to test your CPU under full load?

 

Like how? For stress testing, Prime 95 has been held as the best program for stressing the CPU. There's also StressPrime, which takes the Torture Test and slaps a nicer face on it. The only problem with using these programs is that you'll have to run one instance per core to stress them. I'm hearing good things about Orthos in regards to stress testing for multi-core systems.

 

Hi

Some Test Programs here > Benchmark HQ

 

wow! what a comprehensive list! Thanks very much for the link! I'll just have to hope prime95 will work with Vista...

 

Hi Dambuster

You could try Orthos Prime v20050420, my bro uses this, link to OCs for download Here this will take you to a direct link so save it is clean as i have just downloaded my self "see pic"

 

one prob: in the description it says dual core, I have a Quad core... there might be a problem since it'll only stress 2 cores... I'm not sure

 

Hi Dambuster
