I agree, at least on my setup, it would help to quickly find unstable OC's using the max setting. I am not sure if it's from the code or fact that it raises my load temp an additional 10C over prime to 66 from 56. I will still prime/orthos overnight to be sure.

On my previous post with pics, at 2 notches below stability, orthos failed in 3.5 hours versus both runs of 15 intelburntest on max setting failed in 21 mins each.

I just finished testing 1 notch below stability, where orthos 10ffts and prime small ffts has failed at 8 and 10hrs. Intelburntest failed one 30 run at max and passed one. It made 2 errors in first 60 run, and 1 error in second 60 run but not until line 49, so may well pass a 60 run if ran enough times. Odds are also unlikely it would pass 2 60 runs (3 hours total) in a row and odds are it would fail the first run.

But at both one notch and two notches of vcore below stable, this version of linpack was quicker than orthos/prime at finding instability, so it seems useful prior to running prime overnight, for those like me that do so.
