when i had my 4ghz OC (200x20) my idle temps where around 38/38/41/41. when i went into Prime95 and did a stress test, i saw the temps jump to 80+ and i panicked and tried to shut the test down in time, but the BSOD happened first. I tried enabling the "Dummy...

test.... just make sure the temps don't get too ridiculous and the you dont get too many errors too fast... oCCT is very very strong stress test so errors are bound to come up eventually cant prime stress test the gpu? Prime 95 and OCCT stress the CPU not...

not needed like USB ports/Drives. Just literally the bare minimum you need to run and then use Orthos Prime to stress test the CPU and then stress test the GPU run Memtest on the RAM. Once you have done this you will know if your hardware is ok on its own and...

temps are not idle temps! check your temps IN windows. DO stuff. idle temps can be deceiving. maybe your room is hot and your case doesnt vent incredibly well. download prime95 and hwmonitor, use prime to stress test the CPU and use HW monitor to monitor the...

overclock? What kind of voltage is the MB giving your CPU? I am inclined to say something is wrong with the motherboard but I honestly don't have any idea. PetrolMan I haven't tried Prime or any stress test. In the last two months, I've had two blue...

Prime 95 stress test. Ok, so after reading up on a bunch of toms hardware reviews, I noticed that they often/almost always use Prime 95 to test for system stability under load. I've been running my PC just fine for the better part of six months and I never...

specifically is crashing? Get back to basics and prove everything out one component at a time. First memtest and prove out your memory. Then move on to prime and stress your cpu. If it is stable then run something like ati tool 3d test or furmark and...

any damage to the CPU... You can try undervolting the CPU to reduce the heat...but still you would need a HSF... 2. Prime 95 would be very suitable for CPU stress test... 1. How about one 23cm(110CFM) SIDE intake fan on my case which blows air directly...

of all why are you running Prime 95 during the stress test, use furmark for the stress test, it will max out your first CPU core, then run prime95 on all cores, then disable one I would start off by updating all drivers then test it, then I would try...

made in the last 3 or 4 years. For time time being, do this test: Don't just stop overclocking the CPU but also underclock it. Next undervolt it too, trying to get the CPU power consumption down very low. Stress test this with Prime95's Torture Test...
