Good Software to test cpu stability

Which would you say is a really good software to stress test a cpu stability? I will admit I did try Prime95 the latest version did the "small FFT's"  hit over 90c straight away the test in prime95 that was ok and my cpu hit max 70c was "Blend" but i think this does not stress the cpu enough? My cpu is 7900x I know it's a hot cpu but has been delidded and should not be hitting over 90c with a 360 & 420 radiators cooling it.

Check your thermal paste spread, possibly didn't get the right amount on the heat spreader. For stress tests, intel actually has a good one in their extreme tuning utility.

I don't know but someone posted about this just a minute ago in the Liquid Cooling section... so maybe you shouldn't double post the same topic in multiple spots and wait more than 60 seconds for an answer before spamming the same post. 

 

 

Am not spamming, nor did that come in my mind just thought best to post in both sections since I water cool my cpu and here cpu section since it's cpu related.

Thanks, on OCCT there's 2 tabs for cpu testing "CPU: OCCT" & "CPU: LINPACK" which one do you use? if it's CPU: OCCT then what do you have selected in Test mode? Small,Medium or Large Data Set?

to be honest I just open OCCT let everything default and hit the big green "on" button.

 

But these options could be useful maybe try to google it find some information

Whats nice about OCCT is that it runs infinit time but stop at first error code
