Which tool should I select to perform a stress test on my CPU? Your system includes a PCPartPicker Part List with relevant items.

Run Aida64 alongside Prime95 for CPU stress testing. Utilize MSI Kombustor to target GPU performance. Check system temperatures with HWInfo.

Prime95 is a stress test that continues until you decide to stop it. Use hwinfo to track your temperatures and other metrics.

Prime95 is a great free choice for pure CPU stress testing.

I typically run prime95 and a few cinebench r20 tests. Sometimes stability lasts for hours under prime95, but cinebench doesn’t hold up. I always begin with cinebench since it speeds things up and usually crashes the system right away instead of waiting half an hour before instability sets in.

I relied on my consistent stable configuration and LinX instead of Prime95.
