If I were to make a tool drive to test most aspects of a computer then what programs do you all recommend and why?

Looking to get familiar with more tools of all kinds to do system checks and the like. Hopefully, add it to my resume' of programs I know and am comfortable with. Love working on with hardware but its probably a good idea to know more of the software side.

 

I'm familiar with some programs like Valley and MSI Afterburner and the smaller things like CPU-Z and GPU-Z but that's about it.

Thank's guys!

get yourself a flash drive 

get YUMI multiboot creator

get: 

- ubuntu 16.04 and set persistence to keep files used while booting from the drive (for linux tools)

- comodo rescue disk (bootable antivirus)

- kaspersky rescue disk (bootable antivirus)

- dban (darik's boot and nuke) 

- Memtest86+ (memory tester)

- PartedMagic (partition manager)

- AIO Boot CD (literally has everything - even usable in Windows!)(https://paul.is-a-geek.org/aio-srt/)

 

this is my arsenal of 'if shit hits the fan'  tools

idk
