There IS an MS store in my city (therefore State) and I was NOT charged sales tax on my download. My online receipt and my pending charge card activity shows the price without sales tax charged to me. Yes, I entered my correct home address and state on the order, and yes, I live in a state...

Hard disk manager 8.5 (the vista version) is not available yet, so no way you are going to see it in the list of upgrades available.

Try FSB +.01

Where do you get this idea? From all the reports I've seen 3.4 is about the extreme top of what people are getting from the E4300, and in many cases, its not with air cooling

You say this is for a non overclocked machine. If so, even DDR 667 is faster than you need. DDR 400 (PC-3200) is all that would be needed to run this set up at spec. If you want to allow for possible future overclocking you can buy 667. FYI You should be able to do a safe, significantly...

I found that setting FSB : +0.1v and MCH: +0.1v were keys to allow me to overclock on this board and E4300

I just put together a DS3 rev 3.3 with a E4300 running Vista. When I shut down, the screen looks normal, goes to blank as it should at the end of shutdown, the hard drive stops spinning, but the power light and fan stays on. I have to hold the power button for a few seconds to force it to...

Not earth shattering by any means, but if you are looking for the best price on these two items (and you aren't near a Fry's), via Froogle search, the E4300 OEM is 159.xx and the Seasonic 430W is $73. There is a coupon code (see the SuperTalent hot deal thread) for $5 off an order. Shipping...

Can someone who has purchased an OEM CPU at Frys tell me how they are packaged? Are they in a secure sealed box?

FYI I notified Google about the misuse of the BBB online membership and this is now pulled from Google.

I've got a note out to the BBB online organization to verify since this seller is using the BBB online logo. Haven't heard back yet

Isn't the main difference between the S3 and the DS3 currently that the DS3 uses solid caps? So, if the 3.3 revision comes with solid caps on all models, as the article states, it seems that the S3 and DS3 would be almost the same in the 3.3 version.

Its a simple process, and you will get to see it. All companies are required to send files with all the 1099 information to the IRS. When the IRS systems don't find the match on your return, it will generate a letter telling you how much additional tax you owe, plus interest, and possibly...

The W9 form is to supply your SS# so that Microsoft can send that info to the IRS It cannot be delivered with the Vista disk since it is needed to be received by MSFT BEFORE they send you the software
