Everyone has a different answer to this.
I use IBT to quick a dirty test for stability. When I settle on a clockespeed, I do P05 Small FFT for 8+ hours, then come back and do Blend for 8+ hours.
You need to define what type of "stability" you're talking about. I'm assuming a 24/7 OC.
I use LinX to test for 24/7 stability. I believe IBT, LinX, LinPack, and OCCT are all the same test really, just different GUI.
For the benchers:
Stability? Open CPUz and press F7...

I don't use IBT or any LinPack based testing for the thermal limit of my OC since the temps are unrealistic. I just use those for stability, and then use P95 until temps "level off" for thermal limit testing.
That's about my method too.I use IBT to quick a dirty test for stability. When I settle on a clockespeed, I do P95 Small FFT for 8+ hours, then come back and do Blend for 8+ hours.
