I've just finished putting together a new machine(see below). It appears that this E4300 overclocks quite nicely as it seems fairly stable at 3.6 (400X9) at just 1.45V. Still have a lot of stability testing to do. I am however having trouble installing a PCI card. I have tried two: Gina 24 Audio and a D-Link DWL-520+ network adapter. In both cases, the system boots and seems fine, but then locks after a couple of minutes. This even occurred at default settings. I read something about the DS3 only supporting PCI 2.3. Is it possible that my cards are simply not going to work as they are not the right protocol?

Nevermind. It's working now. Might have been the installation of XP SP2.
