Linpack Xtreme Stress Test Application Released

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Linpack Xtreme is a console front-end with the latest build of Linpack 
(Intel Math Kernel Library Benchmarks 2018.3.011). Linpack is a 
benchmark and the most aggressive stress testing software available 
today. Best used to test stability of overclocked PCs. Linpack tends to 
crash unstable PCs in a shorter period of time compared to other stress 
testing applications.

Linpack solves a dense (real*8) system of linear equations (Ax=b), 
measures the amount of time it takes to factor and solve the system, 
converts that time into a performance rate, and tests the results for 
accuracy. The generalization is in the number of equations (N) it can 
solve, which is not limited to 1000. Linpack uses partial pivoting to 
assure the accuracy of the results.

Linpack Xtreme was created because Prime95 is no longer effective like 
it used to be. LinX, IntelBurnTest, OCCT use outdated Linpack binaries 
from 2012. Modern hardware requires modern stress testing methodology 
with support for the latest instructions sets.

Linpack Xtreme is available for Windows, Linux, and as a bootable media.
 The bootable version is considered to be the most superior as the Linux
 SMP kernel is a lot more sensitive to hardware instabilities than 
Microsoft Windows. Watch this video for a short comparison of Prime95 vs. Linpack Xtreme.

Make sure to keep an eye on the temperatures as Linpack generates excessive amount of stress like never seen before.

Changes (v1.0.0):

* Improved error detection.

* Improved thread count detection.

* Changed benchmark preset to run just once but for a longer period.
