Thank you. I'd thought no one will ever agree with me. Why put it through the stress of 10 hours or 12 of prime. Just enjoy it and use it. If it crashes tweak it just as you would if prime fails. I've been running my 4ghz daily setup for 3 months now ever since I went core i7 and it has not crashes once. I have never ran prime on this setting. If it crashes a month from now, i'll simply tweak it, thats it. Same with prime, you run it for 12 hours and it didn't crash. What if it would have crashed after 14 hours? You never really know if your rig is stable, enjoy the damn thing and stop wasting hours just stress testing it!
