Here's a screen shot of 282 stable with most of the main stability benches. That OCCT Program is a great little program that tests your system for 1/2 hour and graphs out all the voltages and temps of your system during the 1/2 Hour. Instead of crashing and hanging up your computer if its unstable, it will stop the test instead.
Sweet little program although one question, is there any way to hack it to run longer than 60minutes? so I can run it overnight ....
you're right i got 51c i din't click fpu.....oh well it's a d*mn good tesQuote:

S&M has got me upto 45C after 10 minutes, but things are still stable :)
~48C but one side of my case is always open otherwise it reaches 60C (newest beta bios)
Yeah, I think there needs to be an unlimited test too. Should I contact the author and ask for that option?
give it a try, would be nice.
I checked the power consumption of my PSU under full load:
CPU Burn-in v1.017......................: 144W
Prime95 In-place large FFTs v23.7.1: 153W
OCCT v0.91:...............................: 153W
S&M FPU (v1.3):..........................: 160W
nice!
giving it a try now :)
Damn it, can't find the author's email.
Can you run those again with ACPI Multiprocessor?Quote:

Panopsys Throttle Watch and you can download the Zip file here.
When you run the program open "View" and then click "Frequency Graph." Originally it only detected thermal throttling on P4, P-M and Xeon's, now it's A64 compatable. Obviosly temp is the ultimate test, this is just another tool, which shows TM1 or TM2 in real-time or logged.
SYSTEM:
P4 550 at 3.4GHz 1.373Vcore
H20 cooled Alphacool NexXxos BOLD for 775
Black Ice Xtreme II
Papst 2x120mm/55CFM
Alphacool 1500 (OASE adjustale pump from 900LPH ~ 1500LPH)
Cooplex 25 Res/6mm lines
Abit AA8
Corsair 4300C3PRO 1GB
ATI X800 XT
OCZ Powerstream 420
I don't see the 1st two screens.
I don't have Multiprocessor :\Quote:

Here's all my screenshots comparing S&M to SETI. First running at 200FSB (default speed and Vcore) then showing temps IDLE/overclocked at 250FSB (4.2GHz at 1.481Vcore) and finally LOAD/overclocked comparing both utilities.
why does S&M show only 49% load?
I have a feeling it's due to Hyperthreading since it shows two processor's O and 1 instances, if you look at the little logo in red and blue on S&M's upper LEFT corner.
I just ran the program again and it indicated 67% on processor 0 and 64% on processor 1, however; when overclocked at some points it reached 92% which is also strange. This is most likely the P4's thermal/power monitoring features working. This is explained in Intel's VRD White Paper section 2:4 onwards.

Um you have to use FPU only for burning the CPU.
a64s use t1 and t2 throttling?Quote:

New version people.. get it!

Version 1.51 Beta with voltage & temp monitoring :D
When i tested the program at stock speed (3.2GHz) it aborted due to low +12v voltage. Got a Antec True Power 430W. What do you think, is it my PSU that causes the fault or could it be something else? How accurate are the measurments?
wowzer, 65.4 C with a 3200+ newcastle @ 2475 MHz & 1.6 vcore; swiftech MCX6400-V and 75 CFM 80mm fan. thats at least 10 C hotter than my 24/7 temps ("100%" load then; F@H and S@H).
nCrusader - it probably aborted due to an error.
The voltage and temperature measurements are only as accurate as the hardware on your motherboard.
The program reported a low dip on the +12v @ 11.12v, which is very low afaik. I checked MBM and it reported a low +12v @ 11.55. This damn PSU has been giving some random problems undre heavy load, mostly in prime. I measured with a multimeter on 4pin and it reports a very stable 12.05 - 12.06v on the +12v rail under full load. WTF??
I got highend watercooling and a processor at stock should not fail a test like this.
got a copy of the older version still?
I would test with it to be sure its not an error.
ROFL there is a guy @ overclockers.ru in the official thread on this prog who took this prog to work and ran it on all the computers in one day. He had a few mobos and PSUs burn to hell @ stock ;)
I find it to be a very useful addition to Prime95, S&M killed my new Enermax PSU within 2 hours of installing it, such stress test conditions help identify sub standard hardware parts, many which may not fail under "typical operating conditions" (ie office work)... :D
:eek: I'm almost scared to run this new version...my computer already can't pass the test...and for some odd reason my computer has been running warmer...wait...my mom turned up the heat...maybe this is why I'm haveing trouble lol

its in my programs folder for good.. great program :D
So Ivan any luck on contacting the authour for an option to run the program for an unlimited time frame?
I did. He said there is a DOS version that runs off a bootable floppy like memtest does. However, it's not as convenient IMO. He never really said YES I will do it or NO I won't :-\
dude the floppy version, which then can be made into a bootable iso, is a great thing indeed. now does it loop forever or thats the part wjere he was flaky with you about?
The DOS one loops forever. However, it's 4% less effective in heating up the CPU :(
Can I please have a link for this :)Quote:

do you have a direct link, my russian ain't what it used to be ;)Quote:

4KB heh
Tried the latest version of S&M on my Enermax replacement, passed two 1 hour loops of FPU and PSU tests.
thank you very much IvanAndreevich!!

Maybe you should do the review of that DOS version. Then lots of overclockers will be aware of it's existance and the author will be inclined to improve it further :)
Burn baby burn!
Ivan check out my Mainpage www.ksbrainstorms.com simply scroll way down when you arrive, and you'll find my little blurb on comparing S&M to SETI. I use S&M for all my CPU and waterblock testing now! In fact you'll find links to it in my latest review at the [M] on the Alphacol NexXxos BOLD WB; http://www.madshrimps.be/?action=getarticle&articID=275
Liquid3D
Nicely done :D
ALL
I woke up @ 7am today with an idea. What if we suggest S&M author to get together with Memtest86 author to make a utility with both of those in it? That would be THE floppy to have.
How about a CD?
STEvil
Sure, if they could just integrate their softwares the rest would be just little technicalities.
I'm running Prime95 and get 55c VRM...
Folding gets me to 63c VRM, 50c CPUs
(w/closed case) 10c less if without.
This is insane.
Pentium EE 840 and stock cooling: Asus Probe shows CPU temp 91C and S&M crashes after 8 minutes. All this with default clocks (3,2 GHz).
If I add 120mm fan right next to CPU cooler the Asus Probe shows 79C.
:confused:
Current version is 1.7.0.
As about my system (A64 3200+ 754 socket) it stresses more than Prime95 and it is more sensitive.
Also CPU temperature is higher at full load.
Current version is 1.7.1 ;)
It got my CPU temp about .5c higher then hardest prime settings, and about 1c max difference. Passed the long test with just FPU selected
D20L is the best load temp "finder" if you ask me - nothing better than running that for 7 days and seeing what your temp is :p
d2ol doesnt get my temps as high as Prime95, and prime is average 5c less than S&M.
To test the cpu maximum heat load....there's absolutely nothing can beat TOAST, it runs 7~8'C hotter than this S&M!! with the TOAST.... at one point I got my 3700 SD up to 71'C within 3 min @1.71v, while the little wimpy prime95 only managed around 54~55'C after 20min :D :D
A couple other neat things on this page....
http://testmem.nm.ru/soft.htm
Heh, I just tried on my Dothan laptop...I tried getting the highest temperature possible by using I8kFanGUI to turn of all the fans and watch the temperatures soar, I never could get it to fail, it reached a plateau of 87c, with no fans on and the cpu oc'd on the thing to 2.3, another example of Dothan power...they don't seem to care about temps at all......heh the memry which is under the cpu, even though it wasn't being stressed, got all the way to 64c!
