need an advice

Hey yaaa!!!!

I runned Prime95 at FSB 273x9 (vcore1.58), my ram with timing 2.5,3,3,6 (223mhz) at 8-9 hours.Is this can be considered as stable OC?? the temp during prime is cpu=48-50c,pwmic=50-55 and chipset =50-55.. advice me:rolleyes:

I think so yeah. Depends on what test you ran ( eg blend for total stability )
Think you're fine with 8 hours off blend passing :)

[Noxious020189]

Your only suppose to run it for 1 - 5 hours and if you see that it's still up trust me it's stable :lol...9 hours is just over kill

Overkill and also too hard on your hardware... look at this chipset temp!!

I know allot off people who let prime running overnight ( so also 8-9 hours ) and it's not harmfull for the hardware at all or there would have been reports enough off people who's hardware deid when priming imho ;)

If you're running so hot that P95 kills your hardware, P95 isn't the culprit, your OC is.

My method with prime is to run for 1-2hrs per increase in clock until instability is reached, then back off the oc and prime for 4-6 hrs. I agree that 12 or 24hr stability in P95 is overkill for most systems...

I've heard many opinion about overkilling by prime95..
but i have not to worry about it anymore cause i think it was stable.
thanz for yer response..

I wouldn't say that's a 100% stable OC, but it sounds good enough for 24/7. I've had Prime95 fail after 24 hours in the past. If you really wanna put your system to the test, put Prime95 into High priority in Task Manager and keep it running for 12hours + on Blend. That'll kick the crap out of your CPU and RAM, I'd consider 12 hours+ of that 99% stability.

[Noxious020189]

Prime95 wouldn't hurt anything if didn't heat up that much. If the component dosen't get heat damamge to it, then it will cool down and be like new. Prime95 in theroy should not hurt your componets. If you monitor the temps, and make sure everything is nicely going then don't worry about damage. But like I said it's overkill, you only need to run Prime95 for like 1 - 3 hours, not 8. I know I said 5, but I looked into it and I was wrong 1- 3 is really the most you should, because like I said 5 more than that is just over kill

hey masterof puppets and Noxious020189.. both of u guys make me confused again and again hehehe.. I've run prime95 about 9 hours, one of u said that 8hours is overkilling but by the other hand saying that its not enuf... I got headache here hehee.. Please help me... Sadly, i've faced the bsod recently...
Is this the prove that masterofpuppets is right???
c yaa....
