CPU Software?

SFOSOK · Nov 10, 2005, 05:55 AM

What are some good programs for CPU Overclocking, benching, and stress testing. Some links would be good too. CPU-Z seems to be quite common, also any advice for OCin?

any links with those?

please?

Lowfat · Nov 11, 2005, 03:37 AM

i think his list is a little on the extensive side

Prime95. Torture Test. small FFTs. Is a great program to test CPU stabilty. Although running 3Dmark05, over and over is also a good idea.

SuperPi. 32M Test is a good program to test FSB/HTT and memory speed. It will also usually freeze/restart if your cpu clock is too high and unstable.

i use large ffts to test my HSF performance in prime 95, good program it is

SFOSOK · Nov 11, 2005, 07:43 PM

Guess thats a no on the links huh?

Lowfat · Nov 11, 2005, 08:15 PM

Sorry it takes just as much time for you to search as it does for me

and for any that isnt there, a good google typeing in the programs name will get you a download link.

only took me 3 minutes to get all those programs and links
if you cant take 2 seconds to look on google then i guess its your problem lol
