I know this has been done before, but I'm very tired and being a bit lazy. Besides it would be nice to have it all in one place.

So what I'm asking is would someone please list what programs people should use to make sure that their freshly built systems are in working order, with links if possible

IE, Prime 95, the memory testing program, a cpu temp monitor, voltage monitor, sisofts benchmark etc... Pretty much anything that would aid a novice computer builder. Then maybe we could sticky it and there would be no more questions about it.

Thanks
Dev
