LinX is a tool for testing system stability by performing a benchmark test (Intel Linpack). The test could reveal hardware problems in the CPU or RAM. If you are overclocking your CPU then this test is important to check the stability of the system. The test is solving systems of linear equations the number of which is specified by the user. Download the free CPU and RAM Linpack benchmark via Downzen by clicking the download button on this page.

Nice and simple UI.
Completely free.
Control over the number of equations, the number of re-runs and the number of threads.

How to use LinX

Before you start the test there are a few things to set up,

  1. The number of linear equations to be solved, this option is set up from the problem size dropdown menu.
  2. The memory size to be used during the test.
  3. The number of times the test will be re-run.
  4. The number of threads, this option is accessed from the settings.

To check system stability LinX compares the time required to solve the same problems in each run, if everything is working properly then these timings should match, but in case there was a problem the timings will differ in each run indicating a CPU or RAM problem.

The final verdict is displayed in the status bar on the window of the tool plus a detailed table with the recorded values.
