Torture Test #1 Synthetic benchmark application 3DMark06/Prime 95

We used 3DMark06 for this test because it is demanding on the CPU and the video card. This will provide a decent representation of stress testing a power supply. 3DMark06 was looped for 2 hours with Prime 95 running in the background. Voltages were recorded at 15 minute intervals over the duration of our testing.

The Game XStream 600W PSU performed flawlessly throughout our stress testing and particular note should go to the rock solid AMPS on the 12v rail meaning our high end crossfire setup performed as it should.
