My favorite test is cerberus(ctcs). Quite a few OEMs out there
use it to burn in their systems. For me it can typically find a problem
within a few hours. Whereas memtest I've let it run for a week and have
it not find anything useful.

Though the results of cerberus sometimes won't help you pinpoint the
problem(often the result is just a machine crash). But at least you
know there is an issue and can start swapping hardware until it's
fixed(or just replace the whole system).
