Prime95

[NoIdea]

Hi All,

Quick question, when running prime95, do i just have one instance of it running?

I got a bit confused, as not used it before, and from a few threads, i have seen people say that you should run it in multiple instances to stress each core?

I am probably misunderstanding that, so do i just start it and have 4 worker threads? Not sure what worker threads are? or open it 4 times?

What do other people run it like?

Sorry for being such a noob!

Thanks

try orthos beta. does both cores in a single instance. uses the prime95 engine.

I noticed you said "both" cores?

Does that mean it only does two and i need to run it twice?
