Hello again.

I just received another S3 and have some questions. First off, how can I tell what batch this S3 is? I already have a Batch 6. I have provided a screenshot below. Please take a look and see what you think. I dont have it OCed. I do have the latest firmware on it. I am having issues with the HW errors. Are these specs too high? Should I b concerned? I have thought about taking it apart and applying new thermal paste. Think that might help?

Thanx again .
You're at a 1.2% HW error rate right now. But everything else looks fine. Looks like it may be a batch 1, especially if you bought it from a third party used.

New to S3's here.

How do you calculate the HW error rate?

What should the HW error rate on an S3 be?
