Suggestion on Hardware Testing and Benchmarking Programs

[irenealan]

Hi:

I have just overclocked my CPU and memory and wonder what's the best program to test their stability?

Also what's a good program for benchmarking my machine's performance. I wanted to compare the performance before and after overclocking.

Thanks

Sandra is a good all purpose tester.
There are many out there that can do individual component testing. ie: memtest86 for memory, etc. etc.

how about individual software to test CPU stability only?

Go HERE. There's a pile of free benchies.

P95 for cpu (as mentioned above) stability.

Memtest86 for ram stability.
