Think of IBT/Linx as someone sprinting/running and prime95 as someone jogging or doing an endurance run. I've actually seen programs that can put more stress than IBT but that one was known to kill a few CPUs/rigs. So far if I don't wake up to a bluescreen or a rebooted system then I call it a day. What I do is I find the right voltage with IBT tests then do prime95 overnight. Stress-testing x264 Stress Test - for 99.9 stability on modern (Haswell and newer) Intel CPUs IntelBurnTest - extreme stress test similar to Prime95 Prime95 - for 100 stability on modern Intel, and all stability testing on AMD and older Intel CPUs Prime95 26.6 - for testing non-AVX speeds when using an AVX offset Benchmarking Cinebench. Some people though they see as stability as being able to play games just fine so it really depends on the person on how they see things stable.
I've done IBT tests before where I was positive my overclock was stable but when I left prime95 on overnight it rebooted so I tend to use IBT as a guage to around what voltage I should use and if it does a 12-24hour prime95 just fine then its good to say its fully stable (there have been times when people do prime for 23 hours and fail at the 24 hour mark). Though I wouldnt rule out prime95 out just yet, you could be 100/100 tests on IBT and still fail prime95 after 8 hours or so. Most people only do IBT tests to see if their cooler can handle the temps and most of time if your cpu can handle that amount of stress then it would be stable since most programs/games don't stress as much as these programs do. Both tests have their own methods to putting stress on the CPU with IBT (Linx) putting more stress.
