System Specs



***NOT OPTIMIZED***

this has been running for 3 hours now, pretty impressed, i thought for sure i would come back to at least one of the p95 instances crashed. what is the best way to test with prime95 nowadays. i use 2 instances, run the torture test and select custom, using one thread for each instance and setting a max FFT of 448 (K). Is this a good way to be stress testing or should i be messing with the affinity? using the 2 instances i get the memory usage up to 3.6-3.8 GB.

thanks panging for the ex38 info, how do you get your alpha timings to default so low? before i thought that was p35 thing but i guess not, currently im using the same memory multi 2.40B. Do you know off hand which settings affect the
performance level the most? maybe i need to try with something other than a 9 CPU multi. Just that im not running the RAM any higher than before but the PL and tRFC keeps getting higher and higher the higher i run the FSB. Has to be
the memory multi/strap effecting this? Or maybe because im running 2x2gb modules?

what bios were you using on the ex38-ds4 panging?

**DOH! I see now, F3 bios**
