So I just finished my new build and I want to know what kind of performance and thermals I can get out of it. I already know of PCmark and 3Dmark as well as Unigine heaven and valley. Could you guys recommend some other good, free, and easy to use benchmarking and stress testing software?

Yea you were pretty extensive with your list but missed the obvious one if you watch ltt :P

 

Also note that some games have a bench mark build in. 

Like:

ashes of the (benchmark) singularity. 

Metro last light

Tomb raider 

Probably more I just don't remember then
