Orthos needs to be longer then 7Hours+ for a SOLID oc.

NONE SO FAR has passed longer then 15min. *sigh* unless im missing a post.


Okey maybe i should clear up what it means to hold a stable oc. That means your processor will be as reliable as it was on stock at the given oc. All computers unless something is defective will pass a Prime95 for days and days without error on stock settings.

You want to migrate some of that reliability on your OC. Thats what your testing. Without valid Stress test, your system is not as reliable as it was in stock settings, which means somthing is not working the way it should be working.

Also not stress testing can lead to problems and errors down the road. If your system isnt important to you in being reliable, then dont stress test.

But im willing to bet unless you have a really low OC and you dont stress test, your system will produce problems in the future if you OC.
