Prime differences and zero multiplicity

Concerning gaps between consecutive primes, Paul Erdős conjectured that: $$\sum_{p_n < x} (p_n -p_{n-1})^2 = O(x \log x)$$ Let's call this hypothesis EH. Assuming the Riemann hypothesis (RH), ...

A question regarding Cramér's proof on prime gaps under the Riemann Hypothesis

Let $p_n$ be the $n$th prime. Assuming the Riemann hypothesis, Harald Cramér proves that $p_n-p_{n-1}\le C(\sqrt p_n \log p_n)$ for sufficiently large $n$. Is there a value known for the constant $C$ ...
