I've been Prime95'ing my new CPU to make sure its stable. I did the first 2 torture tests without problems, but when I run the "blend" test, the test looks like this after 8 hours:

Is it normal for one to be extremely slower than the other? I just upgraded to the newest Prime95 (Old Prime95 never did this), and I just got this CPU, so I really have nothing to compare it to.

How much ram do you have, and how much is allocated to prime? If you have it set to use more than you have the first test will get the ram while the second dosnt. That could explain it.
