they are both sys stress aplications i personaly recomand orthos. ( run "Blend - Stress Cpu and Ram" ) if there is a problem you will find out for shure. if it runs good for about and hour or so then you're ok

Thanks...3225mhz doesn't seems to want to hold stable atm , so i took the clock back a little to 3210mhz which seems to be much better but i'll perform some stress tests and see for sure.

I don't realistically think i'm ever going to manage a stable 3.3Ghz at this rate if i'm being honest..

Ntune is also really annoying me as it won't load any profiles at windows startup. I have to manually select which profile i want every time from default settings.

- The strange thing is, at 600mhz core clock and 1000mhz memory on GTX, I don't see one single artifact on the screen, this is quite odd in my experience and makes me wonder if my GPU o/c is genuine.. or maybe Ntune is a load of bullshit..

Adding a tiny amount of core voltage can bring stability at the cost of increased temps. You really should post your CPU-Z so I can see the current core voltage.

Mayne I missed this somewhere, but are you using aftermarket or stock cooling?

Pretty much stock cooling -my PC came with an option for an additional "superquiet AMD cooler" for £15 which i selected -I can honestly say that it most certainly is NOT super quiet though.

I'll try and get a screenshot up here soon but core voltage is holding at either around max 1.248V or lower at 1.232V - It's changes one or the other depending on clock speed fluctuation.

So what about those GPU artifacts eh?..

So far Orthos is detecting errors if i increase my bus speed past 205mhz - this gives me only relative stability at around 3075 -3100mhz only...

I was hoping for a bit more..maybe if i increase core voltage a tiny bit to 2.50V will this help?

2.50!? I HOPE you meant 1.50! GPU artifacts are almost always from overheating.
