Default General stress testing question
When only stress testing CPU in Prime95 ( Not over-clocking ram now ) which setting should I choose in Prime95? I don't see a reason to do a blended test and not In-place large either since they test RAM. Should I go for Small FFTs?

Thank you very much.

small fft's is good.
make sure to run 4 instances and make sure each core processes 1 of them.

ctrl + alt + delete, find each instance of Prime95, right click, set affinity to 0, 1, 2, and 3 respectively so you are running each prime calculation on a single core (giving you 100%)

Can G0 go to 70c without damaging or is it just 60 like the B3?

G0's limit is 71*C for Tcase (unknown what core temp threshold is but I suspect ~80*C). How close you want to get to that limit is up to you...

The latest version of Prime95 allows you to choose how many threads (cores) you want to stress, and there's no manual affinity selections.
