Hi All,

Im having issues passing intel burn test on Maximum. IBT on max uses all available ram (on my system that about 14.9gb I have two 8gb sticks running windows 10). It crashes at 2nd or 3rd pass. My ram is running at stock settings

Prime 95 on small FFT, and blend tests both are stable for over 8hrs

Custom test on IBT and set to 14gb it does is fine at 20 passes. (IBT is successful on everything besides maximum).

Can someone give me some suggestions on how to resolve this, or if its even worth resolving.


My specs:
Asus Z87-A
Intel I7 4770k @4.2ghz (1.162v)
Hyper 212+
2x 8gb sticks Crcuial Ballisitc Sport PC3-12800
 
Solution
You don't need to pass IBT on maximum. 10 passes on standard and 1 hour on Small FFTs is stable. Yous system will almost never encounter these level of loads in realistic applications.
