To me, stable is 30 runs of Linx with all RAM tested, maybe not to everyones taste but if it passes that then I never have any problems from anything relating to the overclock

A lot of people flaunt and brag about how little voltage there chip needs at a set speed, I can run OCCT, Prime95 and Orthos for hours but my machine won't pass Linx and requires more Vcore.

I also think that world record overclocks should only count if stable enough to use daily with no problems.

I remember when people were getting Crazy overclocks with Phenom 2 on DICE and LN2, it made people go wow and gave them hope that they could get decent clocks on air and water, only in reality most Phenom 2's struggle to get to 3.8Ghz in the real world. So a lot of people were disappointed because some 'overclockers' thought that just because it could run SPI and a few benchmarks that it's awesome and stable.

All world record overclocks should at least do 5-10 runs of Linx with all RAM tested before they even get considered to be praised in my opinion.
