Hey, I was wondering what's the best way to burn in an FX-60 / Toledo upon arrival?
Thanks!
Tried to search, but couldn't come up with anything useful (too many hits).

Find max dual primestable speed at any voltage....lower voltage one notch....keep FORCING prime to run until it becomes stable again (first time it should run ~5 minutes, then 20, then an hour, then ____)...repeat until it just doesn't want to work at lower voltages.
This probably won't add additional OCing potential though :fact:
EDIT: if you want to find the max OC without trying too hard....use Systool, test for max OC with 512kb size (run two simultaneous tests--kinda buggy at low-size runs though), back down ~100MHz then repeat at 32MB. At the speed below it errors out (automatically set when it does error), try dual priming and then work your way down.
Also, set it so it doesn't stop on error.
I've seen that memory burn in might help but does CPU burn in help?

CPU Burn-in will not give a higher OC!
It can occasionally enable you to run a stable setting at a reduced voltage, that's it. It is the only type of CPU burn-in that I'm aware of.

Lower voltages should mean lower temps = more silent setup. I'm up for it. Thanks! :thumbsup:
