Is this prime95 stable?

When at 3.2GHz, I ran prime95 overnight on both affinity's. After about an hour and 40 min the second instance running on processor 1 halted and the other ran fine the whole night. It did this on stock voltage and at the exact same time almost when I upped the core voltage to 1.65. My ram voltage is all the way up.

I am not using the ram in my sig right now, I'm using some corsairPC3200 xmscas2, I'm still using a 5:4 divider, heck this ram can run at pc3500 speeds with better timings then my pc3500 hyperX ram. I have the timings at 2-3-3-8 when I ran this prime95 test with the ram running at 214Hz(ddr428).

Is this good enough as far as stability goes? I guess I can try upping voltage to 1.7 or loosening the cas to 2.5, this ram will boot at 214 at 2-3-2-6 timings, didnt memtest it at those yet.

So is that good enough for prime95 stable? I know some people don't even run two instances with a HT processor when testing for stability.
 
If something happens to one instance, something had to go wrong. It's my philosophy to get both instances to survive the torture test.

What do you suggest I try in this situation? I really want to get this stable at 3.2.
 
Dial back the OC, or try it at stock to see if it can handle two instances at everything stock.
