New Rig: Intel i5-2500k

So when I called thermaltake, they said that I could RMA it, but that they had the same (sort of) issue with an MSI test rig (the power on, then off, then back on).
Unfortunately, I don't have any proof of purchase (2 or so years old) to RMA it with.

I just don't know what the issue is....

I am downloading the PCMarkVantage as we speak

I was wondering how the integrated graphics in the new CPU series hold up. I know they don't compare to a dedicated card, but wondered how close to being decent they are. :)

Not sure, I have a 260GTX and that is mostly a graphics test.

To be honest, I would LOVE a new power supply. Just not eager to drop another $150-200 on a good one...

And it has worked just fine for all this time....

Well let's hope the one you already have isn't faulty, or if it is, it's something you can fix.

BTW here's my PCMark Vantage score - Result (ran in 64-bit mode)

Hmmm for some reason the site is running ridiculously slow!

Oh, I am glad I get to show off
Result

Would you say it is worth buying the full version for $20?

I bumped an old thread:

You're looking good, Lordbob!

For those of you still following, I bumped up the speed tonight. While I do a stability test all night, here are the results:
