I have to agree with Kal...I run 3.9 24/7 and if that sucker will do 3x linx and play the games i want i am cool.
Now when i bench a 3Dmark run from 4.500-4.625 I really don't care if it's prime stable or not..If it finishes the run it's prime....

I was going to say something similar. More & more, I'm getting to the point where if it finishes the bench and I can get a screeny, it's stable enough.

I was able to do that with my previous rig. But this CPU in particular is very very tricky. So I just reverted to Prime, trust me I never stress tested for anybody, but this CPU in particular has caused me too.

Maybe it could be the MB,Ram or GPU. I have had two I7 920s CO and DO. One 950 and now a 975 and they are pretty straight forward as far as clocking them...Maybe??

my C0 was pretty straightforward, but my D0 is a bit tricky, once you get it right, it clocks hella good.

Hmm, thats an unusually high cpu count, we'll need to run some tests and administer 100L of LN2 STAT! We could be dealing with a severe case of OCD. Overclocking Compulsive Disorder :morpheus:

Speaking of OCD, I've been eyeing this:

What's your diagnosis?

Well, weighing in at over 1200lbs and producing 100lbs of high quality dense dry ice an hour, It looks like it could temporarily treat OCD. You'll have to get a price quote to be sure tho.

I'm curious how much it'd cost. Still, as a Resident Diognosior here, I'd have to be responsible and point out that this is a very temporary fix and you MUST realize that LN2 is the preferred long term treatment plan. :band2:

I haven't phoned them for a price, yet.
The reason I went looking for this in the first place is because the only place I can get dry ice in town isn't open on the weekends and they don't produce it here. They get it shipped in and store it. The stuff I used, so far, seemed kinda low grade or degraded from storage. I picked it up on a Friday afternoon, benched after work, and by 5:00 am, it was all gone.
Needless to say, I had serious withdrawl symptoms the rest of the weekend.:greensick:

Haha, yah, I know what you mean with having a taste of cold and have it all subliminate on you. I can't complain, the only thing I pay for is the drive.

If you got 30k laying around, they sell LN2 plants as well :Dizzy:
