Got a looong way to go - SP2004 failed on me yesterday 15 hours in, I was gutted but today it's looking good at 16 hours and counting.

What ratio are you running the ram on MantisCSS? Temps?

If it's a brand new cpu it may need a little time to wear in; mine took two weeks at 2.7 before it was able to go higher.

Another thing I had to do was to get a fan above my RAM - used a couple crocodile clips to hold an 80mm just above my ocz's - has really helped.

Best test imo is cod2 - found it would often pass any other test but when confronted with cod2 it would fall over.

Have had mine sat at 3.0ghz for ages now and it never falters. Just takes time.

you should get fails quicker in prime95 than in superpi if theres any major problem
