So I recently ran into a lot of trouble with my computer ceasing up on the log in screen, and the power button not functioning, which was forcing me to manually shut off the PSU in order to turn off the computer. (I must have shut it down like that about 20 times). Turns out it was AMD Overdrive causing the problem. My computer seems to be running fine now and I've done diagnostics on the RAM, HDD, and SSD and they appear to be fine.
I'm wondering if there's any diagnostic utilities I can use for GPU and CPU?
(I know there's GPU benchmarking software, but can that tell you if your GPU is working at the proper performance level?)
As of right not I've used OCCT to sort of stress test the CPU and then my GPU. It looks like the temperatures stay in a healthy range for both, but I can't say how useful that is in diagnosing the GPU and CPU.
Also, if there's anyway for me to compare with someone with a similar setup, I've been playing Heroes of the Storm on High Graphics Quality setting with 1440x900 resolution. The FPS of around 90 outside of battle (less stuff on the screen) and about 45 FPS to 60 FPS in battle (more stuff on the screen).It's probably a slim chance anyone would have a similar setup as me and play Heroes of the Storm, but I figure it can't hurt to ask.

. I've downloaded some benchmarking programs (Prim95 to stress test the CPU and 3Dmark and Unigine for GPU).
