Is it necessary to run two instances of Prime95 at the same time to stress test an Athlon 64 X2 system?

Thanks, I'll give that a try when I get home.

I couldn't seem to find this answer by searching so, how do you get tow instances of prime to run at the same time? Thanks

Re: AI Booster. What would you use instead to monitor temperature, fan speed, etc. Thanks

x2 3800+ Asus A8N-e O/C results

If you're refering to my last post or the other one where I blue screened, both times were from just surfing. I will do the 2x prime thing later tonight. Thanks

x2 3800+ Asus A8N-e O/C results

Upped the voltage to 1.45 and freq to 250MHz. So far so good (no blue screen where I had them before). Will leave at these settings a while, see what happens, and then try 2.6GHz. I did read Zebo's guide. A bit confusing for this newbie but I seemed to have gotten somewhere with it as I've...

Didn't run 2 instances of prime. Just surfing the net today at 2500MHz and I blued screened twice with the IRQ_Less_Than message. I dropped the FSB to 240 for now. Will fiddle with it later. Thanks

Unfortunately, for the purpose I need the serial port for, I've been told to stay away from those usb to DB9 adaptors. I knew most laptops don't have serial ports but figured mainstream mobo's would. Oh well, live and learn.

Can someone please confirm. Does this board come with a 9-pin serial port? Thanks

Yeah, I figured it out. I moved one stick from slot 3 and put it into slot 2 and the ram is now running at 400MHz. The guy who built it said the ram was in the correct slots but obviously he was wrong. He won't be seeing me again nor will I be recommending him to anyone. Thanks

I am a complete newbie so please bear with me. Just got an x2 3800+ with 2*512mb dual channel ocz ram on a MSI K8N Neo4-f motherboard. I didn't put it together and no overclocking as this point. When I fire up cpu-z and click on the memory tab it states under general: Type = DDR ram...

Thanks I'm getting myself an X2 and figured this was one of the benefits of having a dualie. It's soon to be a whole new world for me :)
