955 C3 And Water

[Cecil]

Yeah, I just flashed F8 and I'm playing around with ACC...no more BSOD's on instability. I'm just getting "Error Detected of Core 2" and it's been Core 2 for the last three times it's failed. CPUNB is stock freq. with 1.275v,
and I'm trying to find ACC values to fit the slower cores.

And to the topic of Prime95 killing your board:

If you are running Prime95 on a Phenom II 965 C3 with a 4000 Mhz / 1.52v core speed and more than 2.2 Ghz NB Speed your TDP is already 200w...the board's power regulation section doesn't like supplying 200w for prolonged periods of time.

Gigabyte does fine handling that power. Thats why it has a 10 phase PWM. Its plenty to not have to worry. Ive run 400w i7 settings on the X58 without issue.

Have you tried LinX? I make it a whopping 10 minutes into prime before my computer reboots I can pass 20 loops (hour) of linX and no errors in memtest so I run with it. Haven't had a stability issue in normal use. Was never a fan of P95.

Lol you find something thats not stable, so you use another program and call it a day?
LinX is the best stress program for Intel, but sucks for AMD. 12+ hours of Prime is the best thing for testing AMD stability.
