OCCT (OverClock Checking Tool) 3.0.0

OCCT (OverClock Checking Tool) is a CPU stability testing program.

Its features :

• 3 different test types
  • CPU = no RAM tested, alot of heat generated on the CPU, errors are usually CPU-centered
  • RAM = Maximum error detection, tests the whole chain CPU-Chipset-Memory
  • Mix = CPU and RAM alternated
• 3 tests modes
  • Auto = 1h long Mix test
  • Custom (Infinite) = Infinite loop of the test type of your choice
  • Custom (fixed) = A test of the type of your choice, and of a duration of your choice
• Integrated monitoring and System information thanks to CPU-Z and HWmonitor engine
• External Monitoring Program support through plugins (Everest, Speedfan, and many more)
• Graph output showing temperatures and voltages of your computer

Changelog (Since 2.0.1) :

MAJOR FEATURES

• OCCT's main UI has been completly revamped
• Graphs now shows a 2nd line showing the CPU usage / FPS during the test.
• CPU usage is now instantaneous instead of an average since the start of the test
• OCCT now has 5 different tests. The descriptions are at the end of the changelog

USER INTERFACE

• Entirely revamped - now based on tabs, and completly modular
• Now has a small help module - just move your mouse around OCCT's window, you'll see

MONITORING

• The built-in engine has been updated - lots of new hardware are now supported
• Alot of bugs are fixed, included the famous "3 cores out of 4 detected"

GRAPHS

• Graphs now shows a second line showing the CPU usage/FPS during the test
• A legend explains everything
• The test configuration is now entirely present in the graph's subtitles

TESTS DESCRIPTION

CPU:OCCT

• The original, inherited from previous versions of OCCT
• Now Core i7 compatible
• Optimized

CPU:LINPACK

• The very same as IntelBurnTest, based on a test provided by Intel
• It will make your CPU hotter than never !
• 32 and 64 bits support

GPU:3D

• Home-made test written in Direct3d that will make your GPU really hot - this test is similar to ATITool and Furmark (thanks to Furmark and JegX for his support and for the aborted partnership ;) )
• Will make your graphic card real hot - especially the GPU
• Has an error detection mode similar to ATITool
• SLI and Crossfire support (Just enable Fullscreen mode !)

GPU:Memtest

• Again, Home-made test written in CUDA that'll launch a MemTest86 or MemTest86+ like test on your Graphic card memory and report any error found
• Requires a Nvidia Graphic Card, and a GeForce 8 or Higher !

Power Supply

• Dedicated to power supplies - it'll launch GPU:3D and CPU:LINPACK at the same time to load your power supply. BEWARE, THIS TEST IS REALLY DEMANDING !
• WARNING, DO NOT USE THIS TEST WITH NO-NAME POWER SUPPLY, AS A FEW DEATHS HAVE ALREADY BEEN REPORTED !
• This tests demands 30 to 40% more power than crysis on a quad-core system with an SLI graphic system installed.
