That's right.  I used it last time.  Got it now. Thanks.

Best stress tool for me.

Tests GPU also very nicely.

I don't think prime95 is much of a stressor.  I ran it for days while
working in the foreground. It was like it wasn't even there. Only the temps
went up 10 to 15 degrees C.

Now I'm using LinX, which is claiming to drive the cpu at 100% and max out
the ram.  Yet, I can still run a youtube video in the background (I do have
a zillion windows open in firefox).  Typing this email is showing that LinX
is there, though, as there is a severe delay with the keystrokes most of
the time.  Temps are in the mid 50s on all four cores.  The advantages of
early spring time benching.

What else is there to try?  What will drive this thing up into the 90s?

I do have the deluxe version of that board that Greg, Duncan and Tim all
seemed to like on the way (thanks for that).  I got the deluxe version
because I like features and see little need anymore for PCI slots.  I find
that with these upscale boards those extra features come in handy down the
road when the system gets repurposed.
