That's right, when it produces higher Gflop numbers it's putting more stress therefore shows instabilities quicker... in my case the gflops can vary from 48 to 54 in different sessions with identical settings, which means it can take about 30 minutes more to get an error when gflops are at the lowest (compared to the highest)...

Interesting stuff, we've also seen many single-threaded benchmarks perform better with HT off. What i wonder now is if games can perform better without HT, considering that it's probably most demanding apps on i7 rigs nowadays
