    Medium Gaming / General Use Build

    Windows, monitor, and video card get along just fine. Only issue is going into bios options screen size does not fit. The bios is some kind of GUI bios with mouse support, which is new to me. For right now it seams all bios stuff got auto-detected properly so it is not a big deal. Monitor...

    Insight recognized i was having issues and fixed it for me. The never told me exactly what the issue was but i believe it was outside wiring near my house. Their tech support came through but it took some time to get the right person to help.

    Slow Web Browsing, Everything Else Works Fine great pings etc

    I know it is not right to get on other people's internet with out permission but it was just a test to load a few web pages and shoot out some pings. I feel that is innocent, but the law might now. Think before you speak type moment i guess. I get the same poor web page load times regardless...
