Highest Stable OC Challenge.
I began wondering about this a few minutes ago, and realized, I rarely if ever see what people actually run thier PC's at, day in and day out.
sure theres a ton of great benchmarks and screen shots here everday, but most of it's the top of the line unstable, passing by a hair, cross your fingers and pray to god kinda OC's.
I want to see what people can do 100% stable.
everyday, under every condition.
but how can you prove somethings 100% stable?
well, I can't really guess.
but I have this idea.
just a series of benchmarks.
the most grueling torturous benchmarks we all avoid.
some may be unecessary.
some may be boring.
but each will prove one thing, atleast as best as possible, who actually does have the Highest Stable OC.
heres, the challenges.
1. Complete 32M on Super Pi - Time irrelavant
2. Complete Hexus Pi-Fast- again time irrelavant
3. Complete 12 hours of Prime 95 atleast.
4. Complete FULL 3DMark2001SE test (not just game) and provide link.
5. Complete FULL 3DMark2003 Test (again all tests) and provide link.
Theres the Challenge.
I know I cringe when I think about trying some of it myself, cause I know the trolls falling down the MC-Escher thing in 3Dmark2003 is a pain in the ass to pass when heavily overclocked, and waiting for 32M to pass on Pi-fast can give you a heart attack if your sitting there watching the clock, hoping it won't freeze up on you.
But- thats the point of a challenge, isn't it?
to be tough.
theres other benchmarks I'd like to include or see, like rendering benchmarks, and sisoft ones, quake3 benchmarks and such, but in all honesty I know those are alittle obscure, so I tried to pick the most common benchmarks I could, but ones I know can be very tough on a unstable system.
