Do I have too many Stress-Testing Programs??

[Leadbelly78]

Does it make a lot of difference when it comes to the number of stress-testing programs?
Currently I have Prime95, IBT, CPU_z, well I don't need to mention all of them.

EDIT: I might of mentioned this before, if so I'm sorry. It's been a while since I was here.

EDIT #2: i also have BurninTest ( I love it ) RealBench, The only Heat monitoring tool is the Corsair Link App.

I like to use both Prime95 and IBT to test stability. I use IBT mainly myself.

Just keep them in an organized folder, you can't really have "too many" but you can certainly go overkill on the actual stability testing. I myself consider my system to be stable after an hour of IBT with a large memory setting.

CPU-Z really isnt a stress testing program. Its more for validation purposes.

I myself have Prime95 (never use it), Intel XTU, ASUS Realbench, AIDA64, and EVGA OC Scanner X (for GPU).

For monitoring and validation, i have CPU-Z, GPU-Z, and RealTemp.

Last but not least, Benchmarks. I have installed 3DMark, CINEBENCH, Unigine Heaven, and Unigine Valley.

I like to think you can never have enough stress test/validation programs. Personally i use ASUS Realbench and AIDA64 the most. When i first dialed in my overclock i tested with all programs to see if temperatures were consistent throughout them all.

AIDA64 is all you need
