How to heat up that CPU?

I wanna test my new stuff that i got (digital doc 5, SLK-800, 4 panaflo fans, etc). I want to get some temp reading before installing all that new stuff so i could compare. What should I use to get max load of my CPU and is PC Probe from Asus (i have a asus board!) a good "heat" reader?
 
Dont assume that after a few minutes of Prime95 you will reach your max temps either. Let it run at least 30 minutes, probably longer. It takes a while for the ambient air to reach maximum and the higher that goes the warmer your processor will get.

I suggest Motherboard Monitor 5 to watch temperatures and monitor fan speeds. It will tell you low, average and high temps as well as fan speeds and has many other features.
