in my previous rig (EP45-UD3R + Q9550) i used 20 passes and 3.5 as stability criteria; would the same apply to my core i7 rig?

thanks in advance!
More memory - the better. 20 passes is more then enough IMO. I personally use just 5 passes with 5GB of RAM. Then I use my rig for what it's meant (folding, gaming...) and see if its stable.

Usual answer is: unstable OC (no offence meant). I find LinX most stressing of all stressing application as many OC'ers will concur. Of course it is not the only needed for stability testing (prime, hyper pi, etc...)
