I was testing via ethernet, YeOldeStonecat. Fair enough. I've been planning on upgrading to N anyways, so I'll go ahead and push that button. I just really didn't expect my throughput to be that limited, given it's base 100. Oh well. So it goes. Thanks for the feedback, everyone.

I bought a modem (Motorola SB6120) to get rid of my leased modem. During the setup process, with the modem hooked up directly to the computer, I ran the speakeasy test and got speeds around 45,000 kb. When I reconnected my trusty wrt54g running dd-wrt (v23sp2), my up stayed the same, but my...

Well, went through the RMA. I was very impressed with the support staff, and the RMA process itself is thusfar very smooth. Thanks for the help, everyone!

Striped all the non-essentials out and still a no go - will test in the other machine once it's built.

That's a real relief. The only good RMA service I've had was Western Digital and Seagate, everything else was crap. If I didn't happen to have the parts handy, I'd have already started barking up that tree. Honestly, my biggest concern was trying to nail down whether it was a PSU issue or a...

Blew it off with compressed air today at lunch. No luck. Yes, tried that today at lunch too. No luck. That's next on the list. Also, as luck would have it, new parts for a new build for a friend came in today, so I'll actually have a new mobo/psu to try it on. Unfortunately, the...

The older video card (7600 or something?) does not require the 6pin. The PSU is a PC Power & Cooling S75CF 750W purchased at the same time for the sake of running the card. Since the next question is going to be about the power demands... Core 2 Duo 2.13 (usually at 3.0 but currently at...

How on earth would I set the fan speed? It won't boot, at least, not in any useful means...

There's really not much in there - that said, I'll still take it in to work tomorrow and blow it out with some air.

I bought an EVGA 9800 GT in January of this year - works great, no problems. I move, don't plug in the computer for a while, and now when I do, the video card fan will "rev" like it's trying to get up to speed and can't make it. It goes through this a few times, the motherboard beeps (longer...
