          Ditch the cordless mouse, and ditch the MOBO for something without a VIA chipset.

          Edit: That is if you havn't bought it yet.

              The cordless mouse is really good I've used it and the response time is better than most cordless optical mouses. I also have a big technical spaghetti problem. And the VIA chipset is fine I don't know what your talking about?

                Via chipsets are horrible for overclocking, if you ever decide to go that route later down the road.

                  I dont overclock and I dont need it. The PC runs great as is. I had a comp that I overclocked and it always overheated so I made some changes to the room instead of constantly buying heating equipment.

                  My PC room is at a constant 52 F and I have thermo-plates in my floor and I can drop the tempurature to 35 F in 3 minutes which is good because I also work with some explosives. Testing the combustability of products with technology. In some cases if the material that I'm working on gets over 60 F it combusts. I was working on the explosive component of some new blast caps that could be actually "shot" into place and I hooked up the cap to the equipment and did some diagnostic recording. (I put the explosives in a temperature controlled box and it scales the heat from freezeing to critical.) It usually stops the testing and reverts to freezing if the critical limit is reached within 5 minutes (unsafe). So I step out of the room to get a beer and come back with big red lights flashing on the screen. Luckily I just installed the emergency climate control so I just flipped the switch and it cooled the room and the box completely but my ass was cold lol. Oh rite and Dave tells me to tell you that its his room now...HAHAHA. (I think thats to me) and to stop typing. Bye.

                    That doesn't make the board any better at overclocking.... But whatever it's your choice.

                        Um problems? I know what I'm talking about. I overclocked my old NVidia card and it used to cause heating problems. I did the room cooling system instead of buying new cooling equipment for each computer. I have about 5 at any given time. I know the VIA chipset is crap for overclocking but I don't need to overclock it its fine as is and not worth the work. And nitemare I dont want to listen to your idiotic ramblings so yeah, your rite, forget about it.
