Whats the best cpu stress test software?

I usually use p95. But ive been looking at others. Aida64, realbench, ibt.

What do you use for stability testing?

Cheers.

I quite like Aida64. It puts a good load on without completely torching the CPU in a way I would never do in general use.

I've found a combination of cinebench and realbench to be fine in so far as if it can run them without errors, I can certainly game without any issues..
I don't really see the need to run anything more stressful.

I agree. My system would probably crash and burn under Prime95 or IBT. But I can play games that pin the CPU to 100% for hours without a hitch.

as above, cinebench is quick and will tell you if your system is stable.
