I think the most common application he uses is AIDA64. You could use the CPU-Z Benchmark test as well. There's also Prime95 and some other applications I can't remember off the top of my head.

 

Stress tests can cause premature wear on PC parts, especially if done at hours at a time with no adequate cooling for the parts under stress.

I was about to say AIDA64

-Frequencies DON'T represent everything and in many cases that is true (referring to Individual CPU Clocks).
