Front Panel USB

Why do they make PCs with front panel USB ports that are slower than the rear panel ports? They should all be the 2.0 or what ever the quickest is these days.

Anybody out there using firewire? I've never used the stuff on anything.

Asus Overclocking Protection

I'm not sure how old or new this is, but Asus is showing a cool unique feature on their motherboards:

Overclocking Protection:
- COP EX (Component Overheat Protection - EX)
- Voltiminder LED
- ASUS C.P.R.(CPU Parameter Recall)

Too cool, shmucks like me can't bust a CPU I guess?

Intel or AMD?

Anyone out in the trenches liking Intel over AMD motherboard or the other way around? It's been a while since I built anything but I think I may have a project soon brewing for my buddy Paul.
