Running LinX

[setter]

Seen this app lately on various forums and downloaded it, im running the spec in my sig, how long should i run it for, most ive tried is 20 passes, im currently on win xp 32 home, and wondering how this influences running this app.

Run it at 'maximum stress' and 20 runs is fine. It'll only be stressing your system in 32bit, so it wouldn't be able to fully stress you CPU, or use all the ram, same would happen with prime95.

Thanks Happy, ive only ever run p95 on my curent settings for extended periods, 8 hours small fft/blend and both passed fine, ive noticed LinX tends to up the temps a wee bit higher than p95, i hit a max of 56c on highest core with p95, LinX and ibt tend to add 4-5c per core which thankfuly is still well within safe limits.
