Prime95 or Orthos for testing

[joejccva]

Which program is better to use to stress test my cpu? Is one better than the other?

Also which tests do you guys normally use? small? large? or the blend test?

Thanks.

orthos is a redone gui of prime95. orthos is better because it's easier to use.

not really. Try getting orthos to use all 4 cores on a quad system.
