So, I can get prime95 to run with no problem when OCing my chip to 4.0Ghz. However, when I OC the chip and run prime95 to test stability, I like to run something with audio concurrently so I don't have to worry about if the screen just went to sleep, or if it actually crashed. Usually I just run itunes in the background, and have a repeating playlist, but I tried running media player concurrently, and it consistently crashes within about 5 minutes. I up the vcore, and it doesn't fix it at all. Movies run just fine all by themselves without prime95 running, and I can run itunes concurrently with prime95, but I can't run a movie on media player concurrently with prime95. Should I keep upping my vcore til it doesn't crash, or is there something else I should do? Or do I even need to worry about it? I'm kind of new to OCing, so maybe these are stupid questions...
