- Defining Stable Memory
In order to make sure our memory was stable we used the Memtest86+ software. At least 2 passes at extended mode should be error free before accepting the corresponding FSB speed. After running the benchmarking software (AIDA32, Sisoft Sandra 2004 & UT2004) under windows we ran two instances of Prime95 (Blend/Small FFTs) while 3D Mark 2001SE was continuously looping, for at least six (6) hours, to confirm the stability of the system. The 3D Mark 2001Se settings used for all tests are shown in the following screenshots:
The figures displayed from the test results (AIDA32, Sisoft Sandra) are the average after running each test three (3) times. Note that the Sisoft Sandra results (Integer value and a Float value) were added and divided by 2 to give us a single number for each test. For the UT2004 we used the Standard CTF Botmatch Benchmark for UT2004demo v1.3 at only 1024x768 and we present the average FPS results.
