soak test, we used to call that the burn-in. This one was build it, turn it on and run it 11 years. Yeah. It passed!

Yes, they may well have called it a burn in but a company I worked for used to call it a soak test so maybe it was my term. What they did do was leave the results of the tests they ran with a link provided on the desktop. There were some interesting results and they certainly put it under a lot more load than I would have done on a new system I had just built.

 

 

I use Poser 13 on Windows 11 - For Scene set up I use a Geekcom A5 -  Ryzen 9 5900HX, with 64 gig ram and 3 TB  storage, mini PC with final rendering done on normal sized desktop using an AMD Ryzen Threadipper 1950X CPU, Corsair Hydro H100i CPU cooler, 3XS EVGA GTX 1080i SC with 11g Ram, 4 X 16gig Corsair DDR4 Ram and a Corsair RM 100 PSU .   The desktop is in a remote location with rendering done via Queue Manager which gives me a clearer desktop and quieter computer room.
