Im running the specs in my sig. I can run Orthos at 3520Mhz @ 1.45v for 8+ hours without fail but I up it to 3550Mhz with upping it to 1.5v and it fails at 4h 30m. Is this long enough to prove good stability or should it never fail? My temps are fine so not worried about that. Should I test with another program or what?
 
The definition of stability is user defined in each particular case. What could be stable for someone, maybe not be for another. At any rate, just try to use the computer as you normally would. If it craps out or restarts, then you know some settings are not right... And you can play with it more...

Stress testing using programs is overrated. This one time, I was 8 hours stable in orthos, but as soon as I started smp folding, it blue screened 10 minutes in...
I would rather waste the time stress testing using SMP Folding, at least this way it is doing something productive for society..
