I have a socket 1366 server I just got, and since I am not yet familiar with Linux, and don't have much time this weekend and want to let it test all week, would prime 95 be a viable way to stress the CPUs to make sure that are fine? I am very used to a Windows environment, and have a bootable win 7 USB. I figure to just get the CPU stability confirmed I should just let it prime 95 all week. And then memtest it as well once the CPU is confirmed good.
Or, to at least put the wattage to good use, would folding@home be a viable stress test as well? Or would the small amount of time folding doesn't stress the hardware when its switching to a new protein not be a solid test? I figure if I am going to run this thing full blast for a week, might as well help the world a bit ;)
