    Hi,

    What is the most intensive, gpu bending benchmarking software?
    That will stress and test gpu to the max?

    In My Opinion it has to be OCCT.
    a 15 min run got my GPUs hotter than hours of gaming.

    OCCT gets my vote too. It's way better than furmark when it comes to stress testing your overclocks

    Run a CPU benchmark while you're at it since the heatsink is usually covering both the CPU and GPU and you'll really max out your notebook temps.
