New rig - Prime95 std "torture test" 18hr all 4 cores finished simultaneously ( near as I could tell ) with no problems
I then increased the "memory to use" from the std 1600MB up to 6000MB and after 3 hrs "Core1" finishes a test 1st then "Core4" just slightly behind that, "Core3" lags behind by almost a "full" test and "Core2" by almost 2 tests.
AsRock A55-Pro3 motherboard with A6-3650 processor and 8GB of Gskill RAM - all settings at stock
Should this be of concern or would this be normal when raising the "memory to use" up that high above the "std" Prime95 settings?
AsRock Hardware Monitor shows CPU temp at 43C/109F and MB temp at 31C/87F
Prime95 not showing any iterations "failing"

That's normal, working all four cores that long and with memory use so high some cores are going to run prime a little slower due to the system itself using some resources.
