Running SP2004 to test stability

[richieboy]

Hi guys,

I recently put together my new machine and feel its fairly stable now so ran SP2004 for 5 minutes (never used SP2004 or Prime before) and got bored so stopped it with 0 errors, 0 warnings. I monitored CPU temps and they stayed at about 33/34c (room is 20c, its cold!).

What i wanted to know is, how long should i run it for? I want to stress my machine out to ensure its stable, just have no idea what to do as not done it before!

Heres the log:

Type: Blend - stress CPU and RAM Min: 8 Max: 4096 InPlace: No Mem: 1791 Time: 15
CPU: 2400MHz FSB: 266MHz [266MHz x 9.0 est.]
