Intel 4.5GHz & 5GHz LinX Stable Club

the community decided on 9216 awhile ago. zalbard hasn't been around. also 99% of the recent submissions won't be accepted.

Do you know what post that is? I didn't see it on Zalbard's original post. If in fact that was decided, it would be good to indicate that in post #1 so people will know what the "current" requirements are (like using AVX, etc.). Running "MAX" RAM is not a good solution. I know I have 16g of ram but have been testing at 7168 simply because I didn't want to sit around for 3 + hours (much less 12 hours like the above poster) to complete 20 passes and that is a very common amount for folks running 8G RAM to test with. Historically, most of the "accepted" runs are between 60~90 minutes. IMHO, since RAM amounts vary greatly, a better solution would be to set a minimum time that LINX has to run without an error. That way guys that run a lot of RAM aren't penalized by having to run for 12 hours and conversely you don't have these 13 minute runs of less than 2G RAM either. Somewhere between 60~120 minutes should be sufficient to verify system stability.
