So true :P

I'm still doing some testing on this and quite frankly I didn't read the entire thread to see if this was already discussed so here's an interesting thing I found out:

The max stress IBT results are always more successful (passed) on my setup if I turn all the cpu options on my BIOS:

CPU Feature
Thermal Management Control: Enabled
PPM(EIST) Mode: DEnabled
Limit CPUID MaxVal: Disabled
CIE Function: Enabled
Execute Disable Bit: Enabled
Virtualization Technology: Enabled
Core Multi-Processing: Enabled

I also turn Vdroop control to ON so the processor vcore drops for a lower amount under full load.

I can't put a finger on it but that's my personal view with these couple of weeks using IBT, it's almost like the cpu works beter when that 'escape valve' is ON (OC'ed or Stock).

i only have a 32bit OS, so should i still use linpak or am i better with p95/orthos?

the real question is why???!!! (hint: got neutrinos?)

Better say alpha coming from memory package and gamma from the space.

The interaction of neutrinos is near zero. This is why it is so difficult to detect them ;)

I personally keep Load-Line Calibration on.

Load each core with 1 instance of orthos :eek:

WTF ???

This app is infected by a trojan, no way to repair it.
trojan is Trojan-Downloader.Win32.Calac.lh
into the IntelburnTest.exe

Delete
or
Ignore (keep)

Never had this before ??
is this a false positive ??
how is it possible ?

It seems AgentGOD became a hacker :D

He always was... Annihilation X4 ring a bell?

Where did you download it from?

Well, guess my PC passed

10 passes got my E8600 on 54 degrees celsius max instead of 48 degrees.

Congrats on your stability :up:

I assure you there is no malicious code in IntelBurnTest. It's either a false positive, or you downloaded a tampered one.

AgentGOD congrats on this test :up::up::up:

It'll make it's debout on my new Q9650 for the burn it phase on low volts of course :up:

keep the good work up mate

Cheers
Sergio

Thanks.

Anyone test it on a Core i7 system yet? :P

I keep getting this in WinXP 32-bit, what's wrong? :shrug: It does not happen in Vista x64.

That happened because you did not extract all the files to a single folder while keeping their directory structure intact.

I'll be running this again when I get a new PSU... :up:

All the files are extracted to a single folder and I never change the directory structure. Plus this only happens on XP 32-bit.

Really? I tested it on XP 32-bit, 64-bit, Vista 32-bit and Vista 64-bit, and all worked fine.

Try extracting to a shorter directory, like C:\IntelBurnTest, for example. Maybe you are exceeding the maximum path limit somehow.

I thought your Corsair was running strong enough for you ;)

Oh yeah, and I finally surpassed you in 3DMark06.

Meh, that was an old score with a bad chip :P
I'd like to see a screen because a 3.5GHz Q6600 is a pretty big bottleneck unless you clocked it higher.
When I get my new PSU it's 4GHZ time :p:

I almost forgot why I blocked you.

Well, any confirmation that this works with Nehalem?

I blocked you because you think everyone else is retarded and you judge people by "how fast their PC is". It's annoying when you say LOL YOU GOT BSOD.

Apparently not yet.

No, that was you.

Well, I did convince you to get a better board, didn't I? ;)

I'd like to see how this shapes up due to Nehalem's theoretical anemic overclocking ability... those clocks for benches might end up being completely unstable for something like this.

Also, let's keep the babble contained to PMs, I don't want to derail this thread.
