Know your 100% load temp? TRY THIS - S&M 1.3

[IvanAndreevich]

Try it :p

NEW VERSION AVAILABLE

Voltage monitoring & other stuff. Through speedfan AFAIR right now.

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.

Talking about the benchmarks? or the "Blend" torture test that uses ungodly amounts of RAM?

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 ....

Did you even run the correct test in S&M? Doesn't seem like you selected "FPU"

you're right i got 51c i din't click fpu.....oh well it's a d*mn good tes

[Walrusbonzo]

Just giving it a little run here too.

Got a heat spreaderless A64 3000+(Clawhammer with 512k l2 disabled) running at 2.5GHz with 1.8v, watercooled. Never seen more than 42C before with Prime 95 or any other software for that matter.

S&M has got me upto 45C after 10 minutes, but things are still stable

[kiwi]

~48C but one side of my case is always open otherwise it reaches 60C (newest beta bios)

[IvanAndreevich]

Yeah, I think there needs to be an unlimited test too. Should I contact the author and ask for that option?

[STEvil]

give it a try, would be nice.

[The Byter]

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

[saaya]

nice!

giving it a try now

[IvanAndreevich]

Damn it, can't find the author's email.

Can you run those again with ACPI Multiprocessor?

[Liquid3D]

I'm sure you've all seen this however, I find it to be useful tool to determine how these utilities are stressig the CPU. It's how I discovered PRIME didn't tax te processor at 100% LOAD, SETI does but fluctuates, I run SETI and PRIME concurrently to get a full-load, and some serious temps;
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

[IvanAndreevich]

I don't see the 1st two screens.

[The Byter]

Can you run those again with ACPI Multiprocessor?

I don't have Multiprocessor :\

[IvanAndreevich]

Search google for "ricky tweak". It's just installing a multiprocessor driver on a singleprocessor system. You don't need dual CPUs to use that.

[STEvil]

update processor driver in device manager list then reboot twice.

[Liquid3D]

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.

[STEvil]

why does S&M show only 49% load?

[Liquid3D]

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?

[jjcom]

I believe there power saving modes

New version people.. get it!
