i cant link its a shop but here you go both in a super pi 1mb thread

I'm feeling chilly;)

That actually mad me snigger out loud!


love you P
 
Ultimate FAIL :D:p

Easy, if you want stability shots that's fine but don't attack people with your views, if they want to test it how they want and use it like they do that's their own business and choice.
Personally I share the view on stability but I like benches and suicide runs as well.

Exactlly my opinion.

Why benchmark if you are not going to push things to the limits - we may aswell give up now and run our cpu's at stock if thats the case. Benchmarks only have to be stable enough to complete the test be it a PI run or 3dmark - it shows the components capabilities and the 'art' of overclocking to get it there. I'm all for benchmarks and pushing the envelope of processing power but I personally would not run a pc as my main rig 24/7 if it hadn't completed a full loop of prime - my choice - my rule - my opinion. I don't like the idea of data corruption as my pc has a lot of data I wouldn't want to lose and backing up 1tb of data can be a pita.

Benchmarking is about going for the max possible, takes skill and patience and is a hell of a lot more fun than running Prime all night. If folk wanna benchmark then I'm game for that, but I'll be sure to lower my clocks and hook my hd's back up once I've pushed for that extra millisecond in SuperPI:D
 
owned i think :P

nice contridiction of EVERYTHING you have said here

and i rest my case

goodnight

You ever thought of becomming a lawyer?

If this thread was called the q6600 stability thread then easyrider would have a point - it isn't so I'm afraid he dosn't. ;)

Fair point.

But

ITS EASY TO MAX A CHIP GETTING IT STABLE IS A WHOLE NEW BALL GAME

No...its just as hard to max a chip hence your reluctance to back up your claims on the other forum.

Tweaking everything to get that final millisecond takes more skill than lowering an fsb or increasing vcore to get a cpu stable. Just my opinion.
