Roger, I wouldn't do a full P95 stable test for a benchmark. Just back it down a bit and work it back up gently until it crashes or you notice a drop off in score. Stability testing is more for 24/7 use, not benchmarking.

yep, getting though all four tests is the only amount of stability that one needs to address
knock it down it down to two cores or 4 cores, go tight not fast on the kit
follow the non English instructions in my last post and you will be cool

Roger if you're stress testing with memtest and or prime 95 to see if it's stable enough to bench you're going about it all wrong. It only has to be stable enough to run the bench. If it makes it through the bench then it's stable.

That would get you into the top 10 any way which is sweet.

Yep, had the 05 & 06 driver in last night, loaded the 285 last night before I shut down, but was to iced up to do anything with
probably load the 310 in for 01 before i take the pot off and wrap it up for April if my juice holds out, have about 15 liters left
Next will be binning my 5870's on air and getting them ready for the gig

@Woomack
I loved the article that you did on memory.
My problem that I have ran into is that I'm using AMD and not Intel. All the reviews that I read used a Intel setup to get their speed information from. Since I'm on the AMD system, I know that I'm not going to be seeing any numbers close to theirs (I did have a fluke benchrun in maxmem were I got a score of like 32000). Would it just be easier to pick up some Muskhin Redline 996996 DDR 2133 9-11-10-28 1.6v

Okay Guys.....you can start laughing now. I dropped to 2 cores as I have not been able to stop 03 after the GPU test without it telling me that "I have stopped the test". With all 8 going with no cold, it BSOD's shortly after starting the CPU run. I had AB OSD going so that I could see when my GPU started throttling. The weird thing was, that when the CPU test was running, I also had the GPU % involved. When the CPU would start to bog down, the GPU % would go from 1%-2% to 40%-60% the highest being 72%.

Correct. Knock off the warning box and click the option button in the results box and you'll have your score.

try 13.11

I'm not comfortable with 13.11, there are way to many BETA versions of it. If you have a special recommendation on a certain version, I'll happily try it. Going to use 13.12 WHQL driver instead.
Thanks for the head up
