What=E2=80=99s a best way to do this?

Something like an 8K comp with noise applied to a solid?

The GPU can be stressed by playing highly compressed H.264 codecs in Premie= re.=C2=A0 The CPU can be stressed by running Render Garden.

I found a freeware app called XRG that graphs CPU, GPU, RAM, and other func= tions.=C2=A0 I also have iStat Menu installed.
