is there a limit to Prime95's greatness?

[drewski]

i forgot i was running prime95 on one of my machines and then noticed the yellow box in my task bar. opened it and found the following:

Torture Test ran 874 hours, 1 minutes - 1 errors, 0 warnings.

usually i say 24 hours is stable. do i need to rethink that?!? 😀

 

[THUGSROOK]

yes i think well need to re-think our previous stratigy....
875 hours minimum!

btw your system is unstable, you should figure out why 😉
actually i think 874 hours might be a record :Q

It took 36 days for it to find an error?

I think it's safe to say your system is stable. 😉

36 days to find one error? Must be really slow, huh... 🙂

Where I live the power company can't go that long without an outage!

Well, this is an amazing find. To bad you cant find where the error came from? 🙂 Lol
