Honstely the best way to check a OC is using a real world app. not a synthetic benchmark.

Play a game for 2 hours straight and if all is good then your OC is good. gl

Actually, anything that is quick, will not tell you much about long term stability, and useless for overclocking.

However, I listed Cinebench, because I found in my stability testing, that if Cinebench crashed, there was no point in starting P95 or anything else.

LinX = cpu unless ur an AMD. Then u got Nuclearus, and WPrime.
Heaven for GPU.

LOL i got confused also, i thought he was asking for stability.
But he's asking for raw benchmarks.
