awesome, I'm actually workin on gettin a new power supply so we can do some gaming again.  I run a dell but the power supply took a dump ( possibly from over clockin it :) ) and I rigged one off an old HP, but the disc drive isnt compatable. 

I'm jealous !!!   I book marked a few of them links too !!

Jim

I assume your wireless ? Are you using 802.11n, MIMO and wpa2. I don't know shit about that, but  thinkng  about going high spped wireless and was tolld to look  for that and also  use  the same brand on everything i on the network?

They all have wireless capability Greenside. It beats running wires through the whole house.
Almost anything you buy today is going to have WPA encryption and 802.11 is pretty much a standard. WPA now offers AES encryption in most equipment.

The new WPA2...my opinion anyway is more for commercial capabilities.

As far as using the same brand on everything on your network. I cant see it making much of a difference. This stuff is pretty standard
