This gets into a fine distinction.  The WinBench suite was a
benchmarking suite that tests how fast your given configuration can
complete a pre-designed set of tasks.  It can then compare those
results to other configuration.  There is no promise that it will max
your CPU's at all.  Theoretically you could have more CPU power then
the program could tap.

If you use some simulator or other program that is designed to max
the CPU load or use all the free CPU cycles available, then you
stress your CPU.

It really depends on what the original poster was looking for,

On the more serious note.  A few years ago I bought a suit of
software
testing tools from Ziff-Davis.  WinBench, WinStone...etc.  These were
suppose to be the tools that they tested their hardware reviews on. 
I am
sure they still have them around somewhere on www.zdnet.com

Cheers,
Leonard Lee
