Hello all!

I just built my new desktop and I am not sure if everything is working correctly...but they are working! I havent had a desktop in years so your help is appreciated!

I was told to do some diagnostics by my friends, but I do not know how to read them/not sure if the results are good.

I have done PCMARK 7 and got a 3016

I ran Prime95 for 30 minutes-max over the four cores are 49c, 55c, 52c,51c(I think the temp here is high since i am not overclocking.

What else do I need to do to make sure my comp is in tip top shape? I also did the memory tester in bios

Relevant parts (i think):
CPU: intel i5 2500k
cpu cooler: Xigmatek Dark Knight
mobo: MSI P67a-G43
gpu: Asus EAH6850

Thank you all!

Okay, bc I've heard of people oc'ing to 4.2 or so and have low 60 temps so I got slightly worried.

I thought a non-stock cooler would get me much better temps! Oh well. I'll see what I can do to make it run quieter now.
