When running the RealBench Stress Test what RAM setting should I use for it? I have 16GB of RAM so should I choose the up to 16GB of RAM choice or do half of that like 8GB or 4GB, etc?

I am stressing my CPU to check for a stable OC.

I dont really think it will matter, RAM wont determine how stable your OC is but to be safe just give it like 4 or 8

Why not just use another one like Aida64 or Cinnebench?

AIDA64 is great but it is a bit "easier" from what I have seen and it tends to take hours to find any instability.

My last run of AIDA64 took 6 hours to fail. I feel that I could run RealBench for 1 hour and if it passed the OC is gonna be stable. That isn't to say I wouldn't do further testing...I will always run AIDA64 for 10+ hours to check for final stability.
