I thought it was funny, but that don't mean I don't have it lol. I kinda got over it a bit. But I have a feeling you guys are gonna make me become a overclocking/benching junky again

It wouldnt hurt you're hwbot profile if you submitted a run or two. In fact, wprime 32m and 1024m have a convenient and easy "Submit" button built right into the application. Even the laziest of overclockers can garner 2 or 3 points at stock speeds.

I know ur not a pussy tho and running at stock is out of the question

I try to find two speeds. Any modern CPU (made in the last year) at stock even is fast enough for daily apps. So I look for a high clock thats easy to get to for 24/7 that is stable.
For benching, whatever passes is good enough.

Id just rather it be stable to not worry about any long term damage to the chip, even though Ive never been known to keep a cpu (or just about any part) more then a month or two.

I have submitted at HW bot a bit, just haven't in a really long time. I started crunching and trying not to mess as much with the rig, so that's why.
