So what if I show that my system is "stable" by posting the up time from windows task manager showing an up time of like 3 days or something?
From my experience it seems that BOINC can be a valid stability test it just needs to run a lot longer than p95 since it doesn't stress the cpu as much as p95.
Also as a side note I find that gaming and crunching at the same time is the best test for stability.
But if your cpu produces errors and is crapping WUs, it make other people wait longer for there validation.

If a rig can run several hours prime/linx/occt it can run everything. Cause this tools put a unusual high stress on the cpu, and if the can run that stable, they can run everything stable.

But anyone whos demanding to run prime on extreme oc is out of there mind.

Who runs LN2 cooling for 24/7 anyway.

If the system is not cabable to run 24/7 with that specific cooling it makes no sense to test it if its prime stable or not.
