OK into my 2nd attemp on the same board, this time at stock 1.4v vcore @2.4GHz, temps reading ~60C ATM even with a 92mm YS-Tech on a XP90 HS...
Sounds like this program could double as a review tool to stresstest motherboards and see which ones will actually stand up to some abuse :D

I was powering my neo2 with an ocz 600.
now Im starting to wonder.....although the ocz is doing fine.
not going to get another neo 2, thats for sure.
edit:
Im kinda a bonehead. I have an infra red thermometer sitting here which I brought home from work. When the neo2 failed I shoulda scanned the board for hot spots and observed the vrm area temps. Never crossed my mind, I used my finger..... rof.
edit:
considering the emi issue in the linked thread, Im starting to wonder if that is why my neo2/fx55/1gb gskill le tccd combo never overclocked very well. Maybe it has someting to do with prime95's biatchyness with my combo. An emi firestorm problably wouldnt help things.
Just speculation though.
It completed the 1 hour long FPU test on my rig, using a Tagan PSU here, tempted to swap out the YS-Tech for a 92mm Tornado @5v :stick:
Haha, go for it.......but I'd hate to be that PSU though.....nice 'n chilly.....but bloody loud. :pQuote:

This prog. made my 64's temp all the way up to 72C. On FAH, it ran at only 60C. This is shocking...
Try it :p
Been running it here for the past 20mins and so far it's reached an all time high of 57C :eek:
Two instances of prime and F@H and/or superpi 32M only get it to 49-50C tops. It usually hovers between 47-49 @ full load and one or two games take it up to 51. I think I'll keep an eye on it after reading the reports there. New load temp in the mid fifties instead of the high 40's :stick:
I honestly don't know what S&M could be doing differently, or why I have yet to notice a temp difference, but it's nice to see a mix of different results none-the-less.Quote:

Abit nF7, SLK-900U with 50cfm Sunon 80mm fan. 20c ambient.

other unimportant crap
I decided to run it overnight while I was sleeping despite hearing other peoples experiences with their neo 2's. Ran two instances of prime with small fft's and in-place large fft's with S&M running in the background set to run it's tests for as long as possible. 9.5hrs later and everything is still working, nothing has died but I've seen a new record all time high for my load temps that has me slightly worried considering it's approaching the 60C (MBM recorded max was 57C). I just hope it doesn't get there or past that during the Spring/Summer months or I might go back down to 2.6Ghz. :eek:
OC Gods, if you're listening, I could really do with that rain stopping so I can get into town and pick up a new psu/headphones :stick:
It'll be sunny again tomorrow when I'm back to work, just you wait and see..
This one's a keeper anyway, nice temps! Back to the point somebody mentioned about temps only getting so high and that only this program made temps go so high: I thought the same thing about prime95 until I started running seti/F@H which gave me the same temps as prime95. You can bet your bunions some game or something else will put as much strain on your cpu as this did and it's only a matter of time before it happens or you come across something that does. When it happens or if it can happen, I'd like to know that my system can handle it, wouldn't you?
interesting name....i'm running it now, see how it likes my set up. 2 mins in and no errors yet!
din't do anything diff for my cpu temp stayed at 45c and the burn in on sandra gets higher than that like 48c ....i think you guys need to re-do your heatsink compound
I highly doubt THAT many people have their coolers installed incorrectly....but if you're running that system in your sig then maybe this makes sense. Maybe for some reason it doesnt effect P3's the same way it does newer chips....I have no idea...still trying to figure out what's up with MY results. :p:Quote:

Was that prime-stable before?!
yeah for about 10 hours (longest i tried). It's perfectly stable with everything else, far cry, 3d mark, prime, F@H. I've got plenty of temperature overhead though, so i'll raise the vcore which is only currently at 1.7v.
Not the case..Quote:

-12C highest measured with Calibrated and certified production DMM and temp probe.
Normally I get -15 with farcry on multiplayer.
OMG man.. 4 74GB raptors in raid. I want just 1 :) What do you get under prime?
PS everybody - seems like this prog supports HT.
