Prime95

[soccermanic]

Just built a PC for my brother, E6600 running at 333 * 9 @1.32v
I tried the following stress test programs, prime95, memtest86+, superpi, burnintest, only prime95 failed. What does it mean? I read the stress.txt but it's not conclusive. Can anyone help?

Here's the detail of his Pc

Motherboard: P5B Delux
Ram: Kingston KVR667D2N5/1G
CPU: E6600

Oh! 1 more thing, I have set the vcore voltage @1.35v in Bios but it showed 1.32v in cpu-z, why?

Thanks in advance.

Prime95 toturetest is probably the most stressfull test for a computer. I just ran my AM2 stable with it for 24 hours. You didn't mention how long it ran before it failled or had an error. But if it was less than 4 hours.... You have a stability problem. Some people claim that if they can pass a 32M run of SuperPi that there computer is stable enough. But if you can't run Prime95 torturetest for at least 8 hours... You're probably going to have some problems in the future. Especially if the computer is used for gaming or media applications. Try bumping up Vcore a notch and then see if Prime95 runs for a while.
