IntelBurnTest - The new stress-testing program

[WhiteFireDragon]

i have skimmed through many of the posts but have not read all 9 pages yet. i did it on 32bit, so i'm wondering why 64bit is more accurate, and how much more accurate? temps on this is actually lower than using orthos with small ftts, so this must mean it's not accurate?

64-bit is more accurate because the cpu is workings at full capacity, in 32bit a lot of registers, cache lines, FPU/ALU only working on half of the bits that they're capable to calculate, so hidding some potential instability.
