Hi everyone! So I just finished my new pc and downloaded everything I need so now I am stress testing it with prime 95. I started the torture test on blend. How long should I run this? I am running stock clock with stock cooler. And where will I find my results when I end it? Just so I know for later

You don't really need to run it at stock speeds, leave it for about an hour if you want to be safe.

Oh ok! Thanks. And should I run furmark? I have a vapor x 7950. If so, for how long?

Again, leave it for about an hour, it should be fine.

Run Furmark if you are overclocking the gpu try 10 MHz steps and run the burn test each time thats what I do the max temp I personally go for is 85 degrees its a trick somebody on here taught me when I was trying to overclock a friends gpu.

I would just run a couple of runs in Heaven to see if there are any artifacts in the video or just game on your gpu for a couple of hours to test your gpu out since Furmark to me in kinda overkill imo. Its a great idea to use Furmark if you want to find your maximum power draw and temps.
