    Correct and if idiots (2nd time I have said this) start telling peeps they need to run 100 loops etc then that is when issues can arise!

    On the other side of the coin scaremongers are not really bringing anything to this thread and if not happy with this App should ignore thread!

    I have not heard of anyone killing a modern CPU with it esp when the CPU will throttle and PC will no doubt BSOD/Restart!

    Nothing worst than running Prime for many hours trying to reach a target of XX hours and you get up next morning and its crashed, at least if you run a few loops of this 1st it takes far less time and you know it stands a better chance of passing Prime and not wasting your time before you adjust settings to try Prime once again!

    AG is there any truth that SB does not ideally like LinPack/LinX or has that been changed by updates as AFAIK this App is based opn LinPack/LinX correct?
