Linux Version of OCCT Stress Tool Released

For the Linux published the official port of the package occt designed to test the stability of the system in normal mode and during overclocking. The tools are proprietary, but is available for free with some restrictions. For loading is offered a 263 megabyte binary file in size.

Available functions:

  • comprehensive stress tests – allow us to evaluate the performance of CPU, GPU and memory at high loads to make sure the stability and reliability of the system.
  • Extended monitoring tools – provides in real time information about temperature, voltage, energy consumption and other critical indicators of the system.
  • Compatibility with the main distributions of Linux, including Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, Rhel and Arch Linux.
  • The GPU testing for servers has been stated, however, it is not indicated whether the program works in Headless (without graphics).

Comments related to the work of OCCT:

  • Do not save the application to the /TMP catalog under the name OCCT – this will lead to collapse when starting. The program creates a catalog tree along this path.
  • The program uses the LM-Sensors, NVIDIA SMI subsystem and public Pseudo-FS /SYS interfaces, so monitoring possibilities are extremely limited compared to Windows. Windows uses proprietary drivers with full access to equipment, which in view of the non -disclosure agreement (NDA) is not possible in Linux.
