Passmark Performance Test Benchmark

You'll need check you Vcore when you start some Stress testing to see if you get any large drops in voltage., ergo.. in you multiplier while under artificial heavy loads, like I do.
Last night I was able to show Doug exactly what was happening, during the Skype class/seminar Kari gave, while we benchmarked how long it takes Windows System Image Manager to create install_Windows 10 Pro.clg(a catalogue file used for answer files, when building customized Windows 10 Install media)from an install.wim file(you get them in an ISO).
This is real world use benchmarking(like benching an ISO with 7Zip) using software that some people have to do daily.

I got some serious downclocking from 5.0GHz to 4.1 - 4.0GHz.

Never noticed any Vcore drops while running my CPU. Heat was an issue before when running at 4.8 - 4.9 due to the voltage i'd have to use to get it through any benchmark (1.5 - 1.55+ volts). Now with the heat issue solved I can clock this CPU up to 5 GHz with the cache also at 5 GHz at the same voltage and still be under 95 degrees C.

New build for Performance Test: PassMark PerformanceTest - PC benchmark software

Thanks for the heads up Cliff..:)

Downloaded, upgraded from last one and it started to throw BSODs in HW discovery stage. Uninstalled it and now none of older versions work any more.

I get a slight freeze when it initially collects CPU info at the start, since the last ptest build.

New Performance Test Build!

V9.0 Build 1013 - 3rd/April/2017

• AFixed a bug that could cause a BSOD/crash at startup when collecting system information on older AMD based systems

If you still use version 8(the above was for 9), check here:
PassMark BurnInTest software - PC Reliability and Load Testing

Version 8.1 build 1022, 3/April/2017

Applied USB Timeout set in USB preferences to USB3 benchmark test
Fixed a missing default config file error message at startup
Fixed a crash that could occur during system information collection in 32bit
Fixed a bug causing a manual stop to be treated as automatic when running a script and using the toolbar stop button

I can't run any of them, not even an old one from few years ago. Something might be stuck in registry because I uninstalled them all with Revo.
