If you have an older PC (no GPU), visit about:home in Firefox. They have an animation that's guaranteed to heat up your CPU.

Why the older pc requirement?
My AMD x6 with AMD 5800 graphics card shows the olympic flame animation as well.
And yeah it is cool.. or hot? :)

That's the point, AFAICT. It uses "technology" that newer hardware comfortably handles by sharing the load with the GPU. Older PCs may not have that option and may struggle.
