I had to lower the NB, PLL, and Vdimm volts and I couldgame for hours with issue however the system would fail prime 95 after 1 hour. Stability comes in all forms. Synthetic bench marks and stability testing programs are a good start however 24/7 stability needs all programs to work. After that issue 1 hour prime and then I would test for 24/7 stability and call it good.
Hmmm, Yeah... I guess I could look into lowering some of my voltage and see what will go lower and boot. I got it there and never went back and checked that.
