Which probably means it was unstable. If you can't pass several hours of Prime95 without a BSOD then your system is unstable, even if you can run games, browse, etc without a crash as you may have already noticed.
I remember I kept getting some error before the test even initialized on Prime95 and then just left it alone. I'm going to try that while I'm doing something else.

Actually I forgot to include any errors. If any of the individual core tests report an error and stop running that also means its unstable.

Have an old one in mine. Only real benefit in a HTPC I think is boot up time. Other than that most of the time media is being streamed from HDD's or NAS.

State of Decay coming soon to PC

http://forums.undeadlabs.com/showthread.php?31175-The-Short-Version-of-PAX-2013

We will be launching the controller-only version (of State of Decay) on Steam as part of their Early Access thing in a couple weeks or so - please note that I can't control the exact date, and I don't have one to give you. Then comes Sandbox (still testing, so again, I don't have an exact date), and before the year is out, the full mouse and keyboard PC version on Steam.
