Help! My cpu just caught on fire, and the fans stopped working. How do I put it out?

That's only if you have an Intel CPU, of course. And keep an eye on temperatures.

The best imo are FurMark and Heaven Benchmark. FurMark is for extreme burn in. That program really stresses your computer out. I def recommend Heaven Benchmark though.

furmark is gpu only & modern cards/drivers throttle themselves, it's not a good test

i didnt say that, i am saying modern gfx cards & their drivers alter the way they run to protect themselves from damage due to the unrealistic nature of furmark that will never be seen in a regular game
so now furmark is only good for temperature testing, but not necessarily stability
i was also saying that furmark doesnt touch the cpu or ram at all, so it's not a test for the system (like OCCT can do, it can do cpu+gpu+ram at once)

There is no true way to test it, it's all about instincts.

are you testing stability or peak temperatures?
OCCT, intelburnintest (by agentgod), prime95 (not sure), x264 encoding, regular usage (to trigger idle & load scenarios, not just steady load)

I use Prime95 for CPU testing. Never used a program to test GPU. I just make sure voltage and temps are good and overclock till the game crashes or I get artifacts. Then I lower the overclock till it's stable. Then once it's stable I knock it down a tiny bit more just because I don't like running it right on the edge.

You just have to #FeelTheBern to really understand it.

FurMark.
Brings my GPU to its max temps like no other program can/does.

How about with pain pills? xD

I just tested GPU core burner v2 (Furry PQTorus) and fps result was : 15
GPU : GTX 560ti

I was thinking about doing a burn test, and I was wondering, what program would you guys suggest? Thanks in advance!
