Stress testing GPU overclocks

DO NOT USE FURMARK. It puts a compeltely unrealistic and ridiculous load on the GPU that will never be caused by any game. Nvidia GPUs will also automatically underclock when running Furmark so it will not telly you anything about how stable your GPU is.

Programs to use

Even if you just get the free version of Unigne you can run it in a loop. You need to buy the 3Dmarks to have them loop.
