Not trying to be disrespectful BroE, but I've seen an awful lot of Phenom boards die from running Prime for hours on end and it is usually the power sections of the boards that pop (IE: burnt Fets).

Prime95 is what killed my MSI DKA790GX, well that and a high CPUVid. The Asus 79-T has a very robust power section (8+2) and may be able to handle it but I for one won't be doing any 8hr prime runs.

Maybe I've been on the boat long enough to know better...
