computerfreakxv Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 Would it make since that a CPU could run stable at 290x9=2610 when it wouldnt run stable at 255x10=2550? Also, is ORTHOS a trust-worth judge of stability after 30min of runtime? Also, what's the max Volts, or the max temp I should trust the motherboard read-outs with stock cooling? Maxed out at 45C on CPU now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
swifty11212 Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 make sure you get good cooling and then try 1.5v, and use a stress app like prime95 or occt and let it run for 24 hours straight on both cores at the same time, thats the best way to test along with a few loops of 3dmark05/06 afterwards.

DECwakeboarder Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 no 30min stress test can tell you if your system will be 100% stable. I wouldn't want the temp to get much above 50c if I were you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingdingeling Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 stable...... that really depends on you! there is SOOOO many different definitions of stable, its unbelievabvle. I have not tested my stability (2900MHz 290x10 1:1 3-4-4-8-1T @ 1.52 Vcore), but I know my mem does it (19 hours prime) and I think my CPU will do it as well, so far no problems, hasn't crashed at all!

Maxed out at 45C on CPU now. Orthos is just a prettier version of prime 95 that has the capability to run 2 instances for dual core cpu's. 30 minutes is just a good start. Select custom test and include all memory not used by the o/s then set priority to 9 and try and make it to 24hrs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hardnrg Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 i use the 9x multi on my 170 even tho i have a 10x stock multi... it works out better for my divider and other settings like preamble etc... the temps and voltages are very close to the actual readings Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
