    Bink Video files and overclocking

    Hmmmn, has anyone else noticed this or is it just me? On heavily overclocked systems, even those proven stable by the lieks of Prime95, i find that Bink Video files have a lot of 'green dot' artifacts in them the only workaround ive found for gettign rid of these dots is to up the vcore or drop the overclocking a few Mhz. However these measures seem odd to me when stability tests report back a-ok on intensive stress tests... has anyone else come across this or am i just seeing things again

    Nope, not an issue for me - my XP2400 is at 2350MHz at the mo... It sounds much more like a problem you'd come across ocing a video card, but since upping the VCore fixes it, I'm stumped

    See, this is a problem. It means your processor is prime stable and not CPUBurn stable. I recommend it, but no one seems to care.

    Don't worry cV, *I* listen to you I use CPUBurn all the time - nothing like it for maxing those temps out.

    That follows cV's theory...

    Hey Jakk,
    You ever run CPUBurn?
    Just curious for sh*ts and giggles.

    I'd say not, considering the problem he experienced.

    It holds up to CPUBurn

    Mind you, its funny watching the temp sensor rise while its running, it got up to 60C then i crapped myself and stopped the program

    Yeah, it's great isn't it? Mine hits 60C too - I'm tempted to leave it just to see if the CPU throttling works...
