Applications using AVX instruction set? other than Prime.

[ebilcake]

I've tried using AIDA64 which seems to pass 12 hour runs quite easily even with my 5820k at 4.5GHz but this doesnt use the AVX instruction set, which from what I gather causes an increase in temps.

Prime, OCCT and Intelburntest all fail, some faster than others.

Do any applications or games use AVX instructions? how reliable is AIDA64 for 24/7 stability testing?

A few distributed computing programs, and game wise grid 2 going on the below article.

Thanks for posting that, looks like a few are using this and that was back in January so could be a lot more now.

Might have to stop using AIDA64 in that case
