you will find many P95 addicts in this and other forums but to me, it is a waste of time AND electrical energy to do OCCT or P95 if you are not going to do folding...only in that application and maybe a few games you need to know if your system will hack it and only then, it pays off to run those programs.
Thank you Ace. I still would feel alot better if OCCT passed. I don't understand what you mean by "folding", I also am confused when you say my system will hack it? I don't understand fully, can you explain it in baby terms . I usually google stuff I don't undestand but in both of these cases I google was no help.

OK, still at work. But I started to up my volts to try and get it more stable in OCCT, at first it did not start for a second, then I got it to 30 seconds, the last time I ran OCCT I managed to get to a full 2 minites .

But I do understand what you mean by a waist of electricity. I will post you what I did, and maybe you an give me your two cents.


I was about to post yesterday about what I did, but my system crashed just before I hit the submit reply button, after that I just started increasing everything, lol....

Thanks Again for your help.

On a personal note... what is your CPU temp? what is your system temp? Thanks.
