Hey N7 :)
Just tried this on my E8400 HTPC. WCed @ 500x8 1.24v 4x1G 1Ghz 5-5-5-15 and passed 10 tests with a max temp of 53c. Easy to use and works like a charm. Nice to see results without marathon Priming LOL
Thanks AgentGOD

Thanks AgentGod, this package is great!
Life is too short to run 23hours 45 minutes to find a failure when IntelBurnTest does it it in just a few minutes.
I’m now able to run IntelBurnTest Ver 1.6 40 passes at max stress, without any errors, when I first moved to Vista 64 it was zero….
OMG, this thing is a real killer.
Had to raise my vcore by 0.025 to regain stability ( i hope it's enough).
Under load im at 1.31v ~ 1.32v now...
3Gb + 64bit = welcome to hell ;)
It passed 2x 10 runs- good enough for me.

Has anyone tried this with Skulltrail? I have tried it with my Skulltrail using 2 x QX9775's and I can't get it to run 5 tries without blue screening. Is this thing tested for 8 core or registered DIMMS. I had my system very stable for over 3 months at 4 Ghz ... but it won't pass even when I set everything at Default. I can't imagine Intel would release something that is unstable at default values.
My hardware is Intel D5400XS with 2 x QX9775's
4 x 2GB PC6400 Mushkin FBDIMM
PS 1200 watt Thermaltake Tough Power
HSF Thermaltake Typhoon with AS 5 (both HSF and CPU's are lapped up to grit 2500)
OS Win XP64
Active cooling on memory and MCH
Are you monitoring your temps? If they are fine, have you tried taking out all but one stick of memory, and testing each one?Quote:

This is unfortunate, because I'm a great AMD fan, and all of my other PCs are AMD.
Temps are excellent with maximum core 37C with Core Temp. I had already spent a lot of time trying to keep my temperatures under control since I planned to overclock this system. I can confirm that heat is no problem also because the HS feels relatively cool to the touch even when loaded. Has anyone tested this software with an 8 core system and FBDIMMS? I tried upping the voltage from default 1.8V to 2.0V but that didn't seem to help. I have 4 sticks of Mushkin DDR2 800Mhz which is supposed to be rock stable. I can run this machine with all other software and benchmark programs at 4.2Ghz with no problem. So I am surprised that it cannot run the benchmark at default 3.2Ghz.
Going to bump this again, maybe AgentGod can chime in on it? Seems a bit strange.Quote:

I have the same problem oc'd or running stock speeds... this has been with v1.5x to current 1.6 with the Blue Screen Error Message (i've never seen before except with this):Quote:

With the earlier versions where one could select the amount of ram to test, I could get a 5 run pass if I selected a "small" amount of memory.

Cooling is a little 6000btu a/c that I pipe directly into the case.

can someone confirm? thank you :)Quote:

But since I have decided I wanted to use this system as my everyday computer and thus the switchover to air cooling. I would really like to get some sort of utility that will give me some solid feedback on stability, and this seemed like a great utility since it works quick relative to other solutions. Is there an earlier version that would work for 8 core systems using FBDIMMS? I have a feeling that the FBDIMMS with their extra error checking cycles that are causing the problem.
Hmm, try EVEREST and check your temps. I don't think air cooling can handle 4Ghz quadcores @ full linpack load. I have highend watercooling and still get 72°C on max load on ONE QX9650@4Ghz. (1.31vcore under max load, watertemo = 35°C).Quote:

This linpack test is really hardcore, so better get watercooling, or chilled watercooling.
well then IDK about your watercooling.
at 1.3v at 3.9ghz (on a q9450 which would probably yield 4+ on a comparably binned qx) i get absolute maxes in the low 80s on air for linpack, which, for an hour long stress test, isn't too bad imo, seeing as it barely pokes into the 50s for normal use.
I'd say with good airflow and smart voltages those procs can definitely handle this even in a skulltrail config. And i mean, this is just to declare a stable system, so high temps on this really aren't too much of an issue as long as the resid norms are consistent, at least insofar as stability.
At least give it a try.
Max stress level crashes the software on me. 1/2 stress passes no problem. I tried raising voltages on CPU and RAM but no difference. At 1/2 stress and lowered volts I get errors, why is it crashing on max load?
Intel .pdfs clearly state that most quadcores should not go higher than 70°C, preferably below 65°C, not higher. Over 80°C is clearly out of spec...Quote:

What a cooker!
No, never gets to that point. As soon as I hit enter, I get a windows "Stopped responding" pop-up and app closes.Quote:

we love it. :D
is it possible that IntelBurnTest stopps when it find an error?
we make 50 or more tests with error detection.
so, when test 25 (for example) fail, we must wait till IntelBurnTest have finished all the 50 tests.
i hope you understand what i mean.
Just tried this out, (recommended to me by majestik) wow the name is really firtting. 50C in real temp using intelBurn where as Everest stability test doesnt go above 41C both give 100% CPU usage. I didn't seem to get any results though it just seemed like it had hung how long does a test usually take?
Depends on howmany runs you selected in the last option. Keep Everest's stability test window open to monitor CPU core temps along a graph, you will see it peak up and down for every finished test, the IntelBurnTest window wont actually show any updates till it finishes all the runs you had it do.Quote:
