Best settings for intel burn test ?

[rumrunner24]

I overclocked my i7 2600k to 4.0GHz with stock voltage (1.20v)
It passed a few prime 95 tests and seems to be fine.
I've read that intel burn test is a lot faster and overall it looks like a tool that I would like to use now and in the future,but I have no idea what settigns to use.
I got my prime 95 settings form this guide.

Can anyone recommend good settings for my setup ?
Is there anything I need to be careful about when using intel burn test ?
-8gb of ddr3 1600MHz ram
-ASUS P8z68 PRO
-Coolermaster Hyper N520
-GTX 770 2Gb
-Corsair Rm 750

Give it a try with how you want the rig to run, open up a temp monitoring app to keep an eye on it while running - Core Temp is good

Thanks for your reply. That doesn't really help much... LOL !!! I don't know what settings to use.

There are no set settings...Burn test is to determine if what you have set up and how you have it set up is stable under load, that's the purpose of it .... i.e. is your OC good, enough power, can the cooler handle the heat load, is DRAM set correctly to run under load, same with GPU, etc.....

There's a stress level setting,ram setting,times to run and a freeze test.
What's the best settings to get a good indication of how stable it is ?

-How much ram should I tell it to use ? (I have 8GB)
-Would 6500mb be good for the ram ?
-Is 10 tries enough ?
-Should I run the freeze test ?
-How long should I run it ?

I'd want to test all the DRAM, and run everything while monitoring the the temps as mentioned. How long is up to you (or the temps 😉 ) if it gets to hot for your liking - kill it. An hour or so should suffice as long as it doesn't get to hot. If you're going to run it, it's to stress the rig to let let you know it should handle most anything you throw at it

I ran each test from standard to maximum and it passed all of them. I don't see a way to change the dram. I guess it determined by the test setting.
Why do you want to know about the ram ?
I haven't changed the ram voltage or anything and I don't plan on doing it.
What am I missing here ?

Is it standard to test ram when overclocking your cpu ? I didn't even change the voltage on the cpu.

EDIT:I see the custom ram setting,but I didn't change it. Maximum had the ram set to 6500,which is what I had it set to prime 95.

Should be good then, on the DRAM with a 770 you may have some of your DRAM allocated to to the GPU so that might explain the lower amount it's testing.
