I use this all the time. It has a great burn-in utility and powerful reporting features.

SiSoftware Sandra (the System ANalyser, Diagnostic and Reporting Assistant) is an information & diagnostic utility. It should provide most of the information (including undocumented) you need to know about your hardware, software and other devices whether hardware or software.

Sandra Lite (free for personal/educational use - no nag screens, time limit, etc.)
