Default New Puter Burn In Tests?
About to complete my build this afternoon. Assuming a successful Post, what do you guys recommend as the best burn in programs I can run? I'm assuming memtest86 is a good place to start. Anything else? Build is in the sig.
Thanks!

You don't really need to "burn in" your computer. But if you want to I would recommend Prime95 (64 bit CPU) and Furmark (GPU).

Don't use Furmark, it can and has killed cards. Use the GPU tester on OCCT

I'm not really worried about the gpu. I have a 5850 on order from Amazon that I haven't received. I purchased a HD 4650 today on the cheap just to be able to get some video in the machine to run it through its paces and make sure everything is working so that I can send in my mail-in rebates. I may run a bench mark on it just for fun. But I'm more concerned about checking the rest of my hardware.
Thanks for the tips.
