Stability testing

So far I've been running Orthos for the past 12 hours and 42 mins. The test method i used was blend - stress cpu and ram I set the priority to 1, is that how it should be and should i continue it any longer? Btw, this is stock clock not overclock!

I would've opened 2 windows and tested it. Orthos is good, but it doesn't exactly stress it to it's potential. But you're still good .

13 hrs 16mins no errors or warning! I think this is enough for stock setting. I'll do the overclock setting tonight...

prime 95 and memtest put a hell lot of stress on the cpu i would recommend those to test stability.

I think 511 fsb is a little too much for such an overclock with only 2.1v on the memory... Prime 95 work for only like 10-15 mins and Orthos failed immediately... Memtest passed 12 tests and it froze! around 3hrs and i forgot the minutes but it was in the 2 digits numbers! Does memtest required you to turn on the monitor for the whole entire time or what cos i didn't get any error, it just froze!

I think 505 fsb will solved all of this problem or maybe just a plain 500 fsb would do the trick. Wish me luck guys... Well, I'm going to watch bleach latest episode now, I'll report back the result when I'm done testing.

Okay, I have my results now . Look like my ram is a-okay and 505 fsb is the sweet spot with 5-5-5-15-4-42-3-11-7-13 timing.
