PSU stress test

Hey guys,

Im looking for some sort of hardware to stress test PSU's.
I have to manage about 50 machines and a few are showing some wear and tear.
And random issues...

I have narrowed a few down to the PSU, but I dont have anything to really stress test and check a PSU for stability.

Does anyone know of anything that I could purchase and plug PSU's into and let it run for a few hours to check that the PSU is working and working well?

look at what review sites use. Other than those tools only way I know is to load up the pc with prime/furmark etc and monitor the voltages.

It's software rather than hardware, but OCCT has a power supply stress test.

Without the expensive test benches they use in reviews about the only way to test is with a multimeter while stressing the system and checking each rail.
