CPU Stress Test

I have overclocked my Q6600 on a P5n32-E SLI motherboard. It is up to 3.2GHz and 1430 FSB.

Its boots fine and runs fine, I decided to run a CPU stress test to make sure it was 100%.

After reading around I heard "SP2004 Orthos Edition" was the best to use and it works on Vista 64......Well I think it does.

Anyway it runs for around 15 minutes fine, no errors however my PC freezes.

Now I thought if the CPU was failing the stress I would get errors, so does this mean Orthosis at fault? Or is my CPU failing the stress?

Any ideas? Should I try another CPU stress? (Must work on Vista 64, I also have 4 cores)

Thanks in advanced :)
 
Usually, for me, it crashes if I'm at low voltage, and if I'm at high (~1.4-1.5) voltages with high clocks, then it errors. Either way, it failed :D

About overclocking with a radiator in the freezer...I've always wanted to try that :P. It depends, obviously.

And, remember, the Folding@Home Windows SMP Client likes quad core processors! (~2500PPD)
 
I was at 1.39 on the vcore which was fine and did 2 rounds on Orthos but crashed after 30 minutes So the voltage is at 1.4 atm and has done 1 round (15 minutes) so far.

On speedfan the temps are:

Temp1 (system - 64C (Flame)
Temp 2 - 34C (Low)
Temp 3 - 55C (Low)
Temp 1 (HDD) - 40C (Meduim)
Core 0 - 58C (Flame)
Core 1 - 56C (Flame)
Core 2 - 36C (Meduim)
Core 3 - 36C (Meduim)

So the fact speed fan is showing them as flame (Hot) they are fine?

Been goin nearly 2 hours now, no errors or freezes so far at 1.4 Vcore. Will probably leave over night
