I was advised that Realbench is one of the best however tonight the OpenCL GPU test was crashing with my overclock settings. I set no GPU overclock and it worked fine, then overclocked just the gpu core and it was all good, taking it higher than before still fine with no memory overclock.

Tested Valley and noticed artifacts after a 5 or 10 seconds then closed for a second and it dipped fps to ~5.

Is Realbench just a good CPU stability test as it appears to work fine with increased gpu core speeds but not like memory overclock.

Is there a test that will max both cpu and gpu together? Or could you run some thing like Valley / Heaven 4 with a background CPU test going on
 
That I did find out! Real bench is not a good bench test your OC for gaming.
Real bench was fine for 8h at 4.5ghz 1.250v and 3200mhz ram rock solid! Even used memtweak to stress the ram for 600% coverage.

I thought fine it should be fine for gaming but no, tried some GTA 5 and crashed within 10min. Tried again with valley, also crashed within 1h.


Solved it by upping the voltage to 1.260
I guess you could run real bench with less ram and valley at the same time to load up your CPU.
I personally ran valley + OBS streaming as that is what I will be using most of the time.
