I think the only reason you're not getting an accurate test is because you're not using 64-bit Windows. As far as accuracy goes, it is recommended to use 10 or 20.Quote:

He has a 65nm quad-core like me, and you have a 45nm dual-core... big difference.Quote:

My 12v rail drops from 11.97 to 11.84v when using intel CPU burn where prime 95 only drops it to 11.90. I have been priming for hours now, with no issues but I can't pass 20 passes of IntelBurnTest..
thanks AgentGOD! for now i'll stick with xp 32 bit even if it won't be as accurate as 64 bit os, don't plan to switch to vista 64 bit: costs too much in term of money and performance loss in gaming. maybe when dx10 will really make difference i'll give it a chance.
i'll still keep using this utility as it is really time saving, will try using longer test with 15 or 20 passes, but not today: i've got 32.3°C in room!
btw, i've found that the issues with lcd poster, everest nb &sb temps, usb wireless dongle going crazy and so on was caused by my logitech g15 and it displays of everest readings: dectivating everest or the lcd plugin i have no more issue! i'm curious if someone else with g15 and using everst for temps readings can confirm this.
I have no plans to downgrade to Vista. I love XP x64 Edition with SP2.Quote:

!! didn't noticed your sign, it's very uncommon to see a xp64 bit installed! don't you have issue with programs compatibility and drivers?
agree with you! don't like vista at all, hope the next ms os will be better!
I really don't know why XP x64 has such a bad reputation, I've run it on my workstation at work for nearly 2 years now. I have yet to find anything that wouldn't work properly. The only real complaint I have is because I'm essentially the only 64-bit user in the building none of the print servers have x64 drivers installed. Every time I get moved to a new cube I have to have IT setup whatever printer I'm supposed to print to & I'm stuck walking to the old printer until then. :( Other than that XP x64 is great (at least for business/dev virtualization purposes).Quote:

The only thing that makes me mad is that the tcpip.sys EvId4226 patch doesn't work on SP2 X64, so I'm stuck with using an older tcpip.sys from SP1, because I do a lot of P2P.

some months ago over every forum were people spreading that enermax psu and dfi mobo didn't works well together, especially the liberty series so maybe it's your case...said that, i've had a dfi nf3 with an enermax coolergiant eg701, and dfi rs482 with a enermax liberty 500, and my actual enermax galaxy with a dfi lt680: all worked fawlessly!
my old dfi lt680 had some issue with pwm getting too hot causing the pc shut off with high vcore and high loads on cpu, and as you have your cp watercooled i'm wondering if you already have put a fan over the pwn heatsink.
or maybe it is something wrong with your settings!
I have a crappy 60mm fan with broken blade ziptied (sorta) in place, what is the best way to mount one and what size? I wish here was a water block for this thing.... I have a better 60 but its a bit noisy and has no connectors but I could solder one up if needed.Quote:

Funny thing is Enermax used to be on DFI's safe list!
I have a Thermaltake Toughpower 1200 watt on the way from Europe!
Prime has been running for 5 hours no issues so far. I think something is overheating and the PWM (large black heatsink right?) is very hot so it may very well be that
Well, after 5 hrs of priming you should have already reached any overheating issues, so maybe it's not an heat issue that cause your problems - think it's something wrong with your settings, so you'll have to tweak with fsb term, gtls and so on. i don't have an dfi x48 nor a q9450, so can't help you, sorry!
btw, it seems to me that there will be space for a 80 mm fan instead of a noisy 60mm one, or you may get an antec spot cool to direct airflow where you need it!
well my max temp in prime is 64C thats over 10C different when using IntelBurnTest... So it could certainly be a heat issue? Plus I'm passing the IntelBurnTest without issues acording to results I have done over 10 passes but when trying for 20 the PC just shuts off, no blue screen no lockup. Just compleatly turns off....Quote:

Will it go 20 runs? I can do 10 runs but not 20.Quote:

Just an update on my testing.
System
ASUS P5E WS -PRO
Q6600 G0 (VID 1.325) VCore 1.31250, Idle 1.304, Load 1.320
FSB 345 x 9
DDR2 2 x 2GB OCZ 6400 5-4-4-15 @1.9V 829MHz
Voltages - PLL 1.60, SB 1.15, FSB Term 1.30, NB 1.31
Vista Ultimate 64Bit
Case - CoolerMaster Cosmos S
PSU - Corsair HX1000
Prime64 bit Large FFTs - ran for 25 hours, max temp by Realtemp 48
then after a few hours of useful work I ran IntelBurnTest V1.4
IntelBurnTest 400 passes (39772 seconds) max temp 55
Room temp 22-24
I got a question.. How reliable is this program for memory testing only?. Also, what test should I run for this purpose. Real good program BTW :up:
Memtest+...
Memtest 86+ version 2.01Quote:

Before the first pass was finished the program was causing the CPU to Thermal Throttle once it hit 85C the processor speed would reduce to 1600mhz. I was getting about 10 GFlops though :)
The laptop runs pretty hot alot of the time now that I have realtemp installed it seems to get up to 70c quite often...
Also just for fun, I ran it on my Vostro 400 at work w/ E6750 CPU. I thought the PC was quiet but this program got the fan spinning up nice. It actualy handled the heat very well around 65c under load, even better than my liquid cooled PC at home. Then again I''m running an overclocked quad and my ambient is much higher as well. Unfortunately the dell got between 13 and 14 Gflops only!
I would try at least 20 runs if not more, my CPU easily passes 5 runs, usualy it seems to fail before 10, but sometimes after 10 passes as well.Quote:
