The name OCCT comes from OverClock Checking Tool. This application will let you benchmark and overclock your system components.

Features:

Up to 16-core support ( for instance, up to a Quad-Kentsfield or an Octo-Conroe )
Customizable tests ( Duration, Priority, CPU or RAM, ... )
CPU and Motherboard detection
Monitoring support through 3rd party application ( i.e. MBM5, Speedfan and Everest Ultimate Edition 3.50 or above )
Can produce graphs showing temperature and voltages during the test : Unique feature !
Multi-language support

What's New:

TEST

Brand new and more effective tests !
o CPU : generating much more heat
o RAM : More effective at generating errors
o Mix (Former CPU&RAM) : alternating CPU and RAM tests. You'll see peaks in the CPU temperature graph : this is normal !
Auto test is now 1h long
Custom test is now 2h long by default. Don't forget you can change this in the options !
A sound is played if any error is detected

MONITORING
CPU-Z SDK used : OCCT now uses the CPU-Z SDK Engine to get your system information !
Built-in monitoring : OCCT now integrates HWMonitor and will auto-configure itself for temperatures and voltages monitoring
CSMT common monitoring interface : OCCT is now using plugins to control monitoring programs (Speedfan, Everest,...). The details of this interface will be released soon.

INTERFACE
You can now select the custom test type in the main window of OCCT
The ON button now blinks when a test is running (if it is not blinking : error or your computer froze)
Option windows completly revised with new options (mainly related to graphs - see below)
OCCT's version number is now visible on the main window
Many new languages supported (Hebrew, Spanish,...)

GRAPHS
Graphs can now be generated in 2 different sizes - Check the options !
CSV files can be generated, containing the monitoring information of every graph
Graph scales are now much, much easier to read

#6 Posted by ThaCrip on 16 Mar 2008 - 14:31: if this is a stress testing app.... why not just use Prime95's "Torture Test" option? ... that's what i use to test system stability after a overclock and u can leave it running indefinitely if you want to.

i would say run prime95 overnight and if it aint messed up (0 warnings, 0 errors after you press the STOP button) , your system is real stable
