    I think we should simply disregard the program's Gflops rating. It has never displayed reliable or reproducable results for me either. But it is a damn good stability tester, which is the program's intended use, after all. Not YAB (yet another benchmark)

    well, I don't disregard the Gflop ratings because (on same overclock settings) when I get higher Gflop, the temps are also higher (higher stress). If I had a run where the gflop was lower, the overclock may have passed that session because it wasn't stressed as much (kind of like using smaller amount of memory).

    But as others have reported when you get lower gflops temps aren't as high which means it's not stressing your cpu as much. When I get 21gflops my oc'ed cpu heats up to the 80s but when I get 15-18gflops temps are in the 70s.
