I want to overclock my gpu and cpu, I already decided on using aida64 for cpu stress testing but for gpu I haven't decided yet. I am considering getting the 3dmark advanced and unigine heaven 4.0(maybe advanced for looping benchmark automatically) and the rise of the tomb raider benchmark since I own that game. If someone could tell me a good plan/routine for testing stable overclocks I would thank them a lot.

Furmark used to be a popular stress testing software for GPUs (don't know if it still is), but don't run Furmark for too long. Furmark pushes your GPU to the limit and running it an extended period of time is going to fry it.

As @Samppa221 said, the unigine tests are great, and 3dmark is good if you get the advanced version so you can run it on loop.

 

Furmark is great and I have not had any problems with it personally but I have noticed that it does get a lot of hate on the forums so use with caution if you plan on letting it run for longer than 10-20 minutes.

When in doubt, re-format.
