Firestrike as stress test?

[TubsAlwaysWins]

Does firestrike work as a stress test? Im not talking of a GPU stress test. Im thinking a CPU test for overclocking and stuff. Thanks.

The physics test is quite stressful, but many times you'll be able to run it at higher freq & lower voltage than other tests like XTU / cinebench / AIDA

So basically i should use cinnebench as well as firestrike?

Use XTU's built in stress test for like an hour as well.

 

Usually if you can run any stress test for an hour or two, it's "fairly stable"

I dont have an Intel CPU... So what should i use instead

I prefer Unigine Heaven, it's easier to spot artifacts in, less flashy "noise" happening on screen.

Plus you can actually loop it without paying for it unlike 3DMark.

I was having issues with 3DMark so I went to reinstall it, it can't even install, always has an error...

I've also noticed weird texture glitches in Fire Strike even while undeclocked, shits just buggy if you ask me, can't even get my system specs right either.

I'm done with it.

 

Oh you're looking for a CPU test.

x264 Stability Test is the best for that, or an Aida64 Trial, or running CineBench.

Do you have a download link to the x264 test?
