Hi guys, Just had to re-set my bios settings for my 4.7 o/c and when stress testing with IBT with Max mem and 8 threads it seams to take a lot longer than i remember it takeing, can anyone tell me if its just me or does it always take this long to pass IBT on Max settings?

on standard settings

on Max settings

Have you installed more memory recently? it looks normal to me.

P.S. Don't use max, choose custom and leave about 10% of your memory free so that it doesn't page to virtual memory at all.

No, Memory`s the same as before. i will try a custom run and see how that goes.

Ok so i ran with 2Gb on mem free and the times dropped to 97.9 so i think your right, it is about normal. at least its stable again. Cheers
