Is your CPU stable on OCCT's Linpack @ Max setting?

realtemp read as 60C, i've turned off the shutdown when overheating option in the BIOS, and raised coretemps alarm setting to 95C.


Will try it again now...

The last thing i see before it shuts down, is the timer hitting 9 seconds. Same time, every time. Leads me to beleive theres some kind of conflict, cause it sure aint heating up that much, and theres no way it can be a power issue when my viddies are idling.
 
Check the graphs

the PC turns off. there are no graphs made.

I'm just going to leave this test be, i only get 60C load in the normal OCCT test (small FFT), and its 4 hours (+ many hours of gaming) stable.
 
Weird. OCCT just used to stop for me when it said it was too hot, it didn't effect the system at all.
 
My 4850X2 goes from 625 to 720 :p pretty big jump

576 MHz to 756 MHz :p

Q6600 @ 3.4Ghz 1.38vcore under water loads in the mid 70's with linpack

Q6600 @ 3Ghz 1.35vcore loads in the high 80's under linpack

E8400 @ 4.2Ghz 1.35vcore loads in the high 90's under linpack

My Q6600 @ 3.6 GHz, 1.46v loads at about 70*C with linpack on air.

Also dont forget, OCCT, coretemp and realtemp are all wrong for the Q6600 Core temps.

o.O what kind of air? the quad under water is BAD water a reserator 1 (its a joke) just for the aspect of being silent. and Quad #2 is under an XP-120 in a very cramped HTPC case...

I thought it was up for debate whether the TJMAX for the Q6600 is 90, 95 or 100
 
Its 90*C, I looked it up in that official document intel released.

Everest seems to be the only one actually using that

In that case ignore all those temps that i posted because their all wrong.... lol

Maybe ill get new temps.... not that it really matters since they are all stable and all well within temp specs.
 
Where the hell does linpack find 3gb of stuff to shove in the ram??

well if it coudlnt, i dont think it would be available in the starting options:

Hey alex, did you ever get everest to play right on vista 64 with an i7? it kept crashing on my system, and my friends system.
 
dayam i was wondering if there was something my friend and i was messing up on. :\
 
Here's a stability test that I hadn't heard too much about.

Everything is stable on my computer except for this, it fails out at some point (so far between 15-25 minutes). It also drives temps ridiculously higher than Prime or Orthos at CPU burning settings will run, my cores were hitting 75 when Orthos CPU stress gets them to 63 or so.

I'd like to know if all those insane overclocks out there are as stable as the overclocker would like to think they are.

Everything you just said is true, those "stable" very high impressive OC's out there sometimes with seemingly too little voltage...usually have no prayer at passing this and are unstable and just throw out errors in the first run or two, and if they use a high OC with moderate to high voltage on air...then the temps go way up and again within a few runs the CPU shits on itself and it fails...put it this way, I found all this out first hand when someone introduced myself to this test, it truly shows you what is stable and what isn't, as well as forces you to really learn your pc settings and ins and outs as well as instill some modesty in you as well...
 
Seems OK for my rig:

Thats very Impressive BP, I hope my E8400 I get tomorrow does half as good

4.0GHz @ 1.176V:twitch: Very nice!
 
56C and I know my reading is about 5C high on the CPU. 74F ambiant temps, and the freaking water pump is crushing the intake tube ............


I haven't had time to fix it, but am not worried as holding it open does nothing for temps.
 
4.0GHz @ 1.176V:twitch: Very nice!

It's colossal vdroop from an old P5B ... I got it at 1.32 in the bios...

(gotta bring myself to do that pencil mod one day...)
 
I was a total n00b when I did it to a board I sold Solaris. Read up and sharpen a pencil, as long as you have a DMM I say go for it. Just be gentle with the pencil at first to see how well it responds.

Took me like 4-5 tries to get it dead on, but OMG it was so worth the 30 minutes of my time.

my xeon does exactly the same thing, i made a thread about it thinking i was special. guess not!

Ooooh... mines at 1.175v in the bios.

eh, well i trust unclewebb and his tests, as he saw that documentation and releasing of TJmax's for all the c2d/c2q cpu's and the 90 didn't seem very accurate at all, and according to some testing he did afterwards he said 100 is best on average for q6600. I'd like to think that my q6600 tjmax is 90, cause then my temps are around 26/44(idle/load) instead of 36/54.
 
update: found out why my PC was crashing in linpack. ram was overheating to 90C or so... guess it didnt like linpack at all.

ordered a fan to stick over there, so i'll be testing again once the rams cooled.
 
this was my best on my new tpower i45 w/e8600 combo I could get so far, just did it yesterday, I was quite happy at the low load voltage and still using 100% memory and getting it to pass 30 runs flawlessly @4.1 ghz....
