Re: benchmark software

Are you looking to check stability, performance, or both?

Run Prime95 for a day or two. If there's no errors, you should be stable. Something like FurMark to stress the GPU (15 minutes should suffice).

Keep an eye on the temps.

Re: benchmark software

when you're all sorted I second Prime 95 torture test when you start overclocking

pro tip: with assembly, start with the minimum # of parts to get operational. Hold off on the vid card and don't drop in all 16gb ram up front
