Run the default test with this: http://www.mersenne.org/download/
Watch the CPU core temps during the run. Stop the test if it the cores go over 61C. It can take higher temps, but there's no sense pushing it for now. All we are after is to see if it is running hotter than it should.

A better way to check temps is to use AMD Overdrive. It will show the distance you have to the max temp, know as the thermal margin: http://sites.amd.com/us/game/downloads/amd-overdrive/Pages/overview.aspx
