I usually set my computer up, then I use it for everyday task: if it never
The purpose of running tests like memtest86, Prime95, and 3DMark2001se,
is to detect broken hardware before the 15 day return period is up
with your vendor.

Well, if u run intensive applications and not just Notepad, be sure your
hardware fail for sure if something is broken. U maybe have little
problems (like an application shutting down hisself, a memory address
errror, but be sure u ALWAYS see an error if something is wrong).
You should run memtest86, so memory errors don't cause something
critical, like your registry, to get damaged.

Well, I always run memtest86 (very few times, I can say) only when I do
have simptoms like the one I said before, and everytime, yes, there is a
problem :)

I also seen, when I think everything is correctly setting up, also if I
run the great (and in my opinion only trustable software memory tester)
Memtest86, it's really ok! :)
I always recommend running test programs when the hardware is new. You
can use the programs to collect baseline information - like the memory
bandwidth readout in memtest86, the score in 3DMark and the temperature
rise of the CPU, above the measured case temp and the room temperature
at the time. You can refer to these values in the future. For example,
say you run Prime95, and the CPU gets up to 55C. If you run the test a
year from now, with same room temp and case internal temp, and the CPU
is at 60C+, that might be a good indication of the need to renew the
thermal compound on the CPU.

Well, I always run motherboard monitor for that and power
supply/voltage/fan speed data. No need to run Prime! :)
You won't know when to do it, unless you
know the history of your hardware.
I change my hardware quietly often (we can say nothing last for one year
on here :), so no need for it.

BTW, everytime I replace it, it always still serve well, like the
venerable A7V333 I had before AA7NX8-E Deluxe, like Crucial Memory I had
before Kingston and so on :)

I think tests and stuff like that are for puters havin problems and for
people with a lot of spare time :)

All IMHO :)
