Operating Systems & Open Source Linux

When you build a high end desktop PC and you want to tweak and stress test and regulate fans etc. you’re spoilt for choice under Windows:
Prime95
Aida64
Furmark
HWinfo
SpeedFan
Afterburner
etc.etc.etc.etc.etc.

But what about with Linux? What are the alternatives? Preferably with a proper UI :wink:
