I would like to know smtg. Is it possible for a system to fail to achieve Prime stable if lets say everything is left at stock speeds. Yea, that means no volt increase, no pushing FSB or multiplier... not even tighten RAM timings. Is it possible?

yes...when ur system is unstable such as voltage flunctuation or processor spoiled..

Voltage fluctuations are caused due to malfunctioning PSU right? Okay, considering everything is working fine.. not spoilt anywhere... is it still possible to fail those torture tests on Prime95?

not always all blame on the PSU. Some boards flucntuates badly, like for example my Abit IS7-E board. Stock in BIOS is 1.55V, Windows is 1.52V, full load can even drop till 1.42V

Mostly failed is due to hardware incompatible or RAM

I see... I guess there is no way of saying any pc is 'prime stable' unless it has been tested out.

Btw, which torture test is the best for load tests on ur pc. The 1st, 2nd or 3rd torture test?

Meaning to say, there are many factors that causes Prime to fail such as

- PSU
- Motherboard
- Hardware Incompatibility
- Heat?

Anything else that can cause a system to fail to achieve prime stable at stock speeds?
