sandman32 Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 I am a lot more stable after switching to the 2/17 bios. Anything above a 200FSB and I was crashing before. I'm at 10X230 (priming for the last hour and a half no errors, 41C load) I'll let it run through the night and bump it up tomorrow some if that goes well.

flexy Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 Lots of good burnin/benchmarking stuff Home of S&M - good for CPU burnin/checking English Translation of OCCT homepage OCCT is a really good benchmark (fast compared to prime and so far they seem to be in sync. Hope these help OCCT kicks butt !! Its hands down the best stabillty test....i dont even use prime anymore ! too bad the forum and most docs are in french...who in the world speaks french ? (Except the french of course) Also..some website recently did extensive testing of SEVERAL "stability tester" tools...incl. superpi, prime, OCCT, cpuburn etc etc. and it showed that ONLY prime and OCCT were able to do the task right..the others progs are pretty much worthless for real stability testing and checking against fixed, known results. OCCT came out #1 (AFAIK) since it was as sensible and reliable in testing as prime...and of course it has more features than prime.

flexy Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 how to disable the memtest86 during the PC boot up?

Thx hit "del" key on keyboard (this is the long thing with the tiny knobs)....enter the BIOS...and disable memtest ????? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilh Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 flexy, Does OCCT expose problems faster than Prime95? I've had prime failures at 21h, long after most folks would have given up. It's a pain to wait 24h after making a change. (I realize that even 24h is no guarantee of absolute stability.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked in cpu-z, i have version 1.27, couldn't find it, it just had like Phoenix blah blah. I'd like to check what bios I have before updating to the 2/17.
