Hardware Diagnostic for New PC Build?

[DaveMcKeen]

Hi,

I've read the stickies! I plan on putting together a new PC. Proposed parts list below. If anyone out there has used a diagnostic utility to check out the hardware and trusts the diagnostic I'd like to know what you used. I have #1TuffTEXT-Pro v3.53. It hasn't has a rev in a couple of years. It reports failed memory tests on my current system and I'm not sure whether or not to believe it.

The proposed build list below is FYI. I will post another thread for comments on the configuration.

Thanks, Dave
