Hello everyone,
I have an old motherboard which I replaced some dead capacitors on and I would like to run some tests on the board to determine if it is stable or not.
What is the best way to test motherboard stability?
I assume the approach is to use a CPU and RAM which is proven to be stable in order to isolate the motherboard and then run some stability tests, which programs could I use?
I am thinking something like memtest or Prime95? Could errors in memtest with a known good stick of RAM point to motherboard problems?
Thanks!
