well to be honest with you the processor has worked great in this computer up until my PSU has started doing this. I mean, the voltage from my PSU i'm sure was running fine up until 2 months ago when my computer started doing this periodic lockup thing. The PSU has a really bad reputation as i've recently read in reviews, unfortunately when i was looking to purchase the PSU in the past all of the reviews on the front page were 4 and 5 star reviews, given the fact the people reviewing the PSU had just installed it out of the box and were like "Wow runs great! blah blah blah" as opposed to waiting a few months to review it. I was going to see if i could return it to Tiger-Direct, but unfortunately it looks like the PSU box is the ONE box that went missing out of all the packaging i have kept from my purchases, and returns to them are unable to be done without original packaging.
The keyboard is working okay now, and it worked on my sister's computer, so i'm pretty sure it is due to the PSU. I think a new PSU is really all i need. I get my paycheck friday, hopefully it will be in excess of 450 dollars so that i can purchase a new one ASAP.
As for the Asus QVL, their website makes their product inaccessible to view further than the thumbnail after search, and it seems they have AWFUL support service, so i may just go with another brand. What exactly would you recommend? I am, after all, very satisfied with my computer except for this issue that has recently popped up, and if there is anything that is Slot 775 SLI ready and has support for the Q9400 CPU i have, i'd like to know about it =)
