- OCCT is an all-in-one stability check & stress test tool. OCCT is great at generating heavy loads on your components ( CPU, GPU, Memory, GPU Memory & Power supply ), and aims at detecting hardware errors or stability issues faster than anything else.
- FurMark is a very intensive OpenGL benchmark that uses fur rendering algorithms to measure the performance of the graphics card.
- Hardinfo is a system information and benchmark tool for Linux. It shows detailed system info, including hardware, environment, and kernel. It can use lm_sensors and ACPI for temperature and battery information. It also has four CPU banchmarks and two FPU benchmarks.
