What I figured, but wanted to make sure. Thanks for the help!

Well, the PSU is older and probably under what is needed for the rig, so I'm replacing that anyway. Hopefully that is it. I don't have MB speakers, and I did not hear any sound. Nothing happens when I hit the power button. No beeps, no half second of power, absolutely nothing.

I'm posting in this in the MB section because I believe that's what my problem is, but really not sure. Sorry for the long explanation, but I want to explain everything that happened in case this clues anyone in to what may have happened and what may be the faulty hardware. I was closing World...

Will a regular wireless router work as well with a wired connection?

I've never done anything but connect 1 computer directly from my cable modem. I'm looking to now have a wired connection to my desktop pc and have a wireless to my laptop. What's the easiest way to set this up?

Trying to find some info on input lag. From what I've read almost all lcd monitors have it, but I can't find any of that sort of info while I'm looking at specs. Is this listed as something else that I'm just not reading as input lag, or is there generally somewhere else I have to look to find...

I've hit my target OC and used your guide for much of the build (at least what the build was previously). Greatly appreciated, it's doing exactly what I wanted it to do. Thanks again!

Well, so far so good. Able to do this at no voltage increase, except for ram which was 1.8 at stock (instead of 2.1 as it should have been). I have the ram running right around 800 and down to 4-4-4-12, and the fsb at 300 w/ 3.0 on the cpu. Temps running right around 59% at full load and no...

What is the difference between the S3 and DS3, I haven't been able to get an answer to that. The spec's look the same, the same manual even comes with it. BTW, I believe this S3 does support RAID. I just got this setup last night, with most of the parts listed here. Trying to overclock with...

I recently ordered (on the way) an S3 motherboard, but after seeing that the DS3 was only a bit more expensive, did I make a mistake here? The timings on both of these look similiar, so but some of the comments in the forums about the limits of the overclocking on my S3 have concerned me...

Well, I appreciate your guide. Hope it was minor surgery. Thanks.

Yah, getting some confusing feedback here. http://forumz.tomshardware.com/hardware/Overclocking-E4400-ftopict234623.html I based my build on this guide, with a few changes. I went with some corsair 800 ram, and an E4400. Should I have a problem here getting to 3.0?

What kind of overclocking can you expect from this build?

Should I get a different board then? Those other boards aren't much more expensive. The reviews on newegg for this board say they can get to 400, why would going to 300 be a problem? Is there something about the 4400 that I'm missing that makes this a bad motherboard for it?

Well, it does do 1066 fsb, that won't cut it?
