Forgive the stupid question, but is completing super-pi calculations equivalent to a stable OC?

I always thought it had to be Prime/Orthos stable for multiple hours?

If I'm wrong, what program can be run/completed to call one's OC "stable?"

Thanks.

No Super PI, even 32M is much less CPU taxing than Orthos / prime. OCCT isnt bad for a 30 min test, but nothing beats Orthos / Prime.

That's what I thought, thanks for the confirmation.

Now, what's the "accepted" or "reasonable" time length to run prime/orthos for a "stable" OC?
