using Intels TAT as a stress tester

[mickeddie]

When I use TAT and select "100% load" my temps go up a few degrees more than with Everest stressing a "blend" of CPU and memory.

Is there any reason to use one stress program over another?

TAT is a Thermal Analysis Tool, NOT a stress tester. It it not for testing the stability of overclocks.

As was said, read Comp's guide.
