Burn-in test software - Windows 7 64-Bit

Mot Wakorb · 08-27-2010, 11:04 PM

Anyone have experience with a decent burn-in test software? I know Prime95 for a long time was the popular choice, but I'm just wondering if there's something better that's dedicated to the job and testing multi-core CPUs.

Prime95 is multicore aware/capable, you no longer need to run and bind an instance for each core. You need the beta version, get it here: v25.9

Hmm, more versions.

26.1 Build 1(32 bit)
26.1 Build 1(64 bit)

You can look at the ftp://mersenne.org/gimps and see all the versions available, fyi.

You could also give wPrime a shot.
