Is there a program out there to run your GPU at full 100% capacity, or do most generic tests do that? like 3dmarkvantage?

I want to test the stability of my GPU overclocks, but dont know what the best way is.

So, i need a program, like prime for cpus and memtest for Ram. any advice? or have i answere my own question with 3dmark?

for testing overclocks use ati tool (http://www.techpowerup.com/atitool/), (will work with your nvidia card)

also try fur mark (http://www.ozone3d.net/benchmarks/fur/)

and since you have a evga nvidia card check out

EVGA Precision (http://www.evga.com/precision/)


Exclusive EVGA GPU Voltage Tuner (http://www.evga.com/articles/00462/)


also for your cpu, try intel burn test (http://downloads.guru3d.com/IntelBurnTest-v1.6-download-2047.html), that will really mess with your overclocks lol. if you thought p95 stressed your system IBT will add 10C to your temps and really stress it.

when i run at 3.5GHz i was getting 46-47C ish. with a vcore of about 1.38(actual) high, but not so bad i guess.

here is a SS of it running for 10 minutes.
