I have two PCs that I built during the week end of the 27th of March. They are from NewEgg. It was a combo deal and here is the website (http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboBundleDetails.aspx?ItemList=Combo.359881) with a Power Color 5570 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814131341&cm_re=5570-_-14-131-341-_-Product). They were built exactly the same and I was installing on them that i noticed that one was quite a bit faster than even my quad core. When you would click on a letter key it would type it 5 times in a row. It boots the OS in under 5 secs. I have changed the CPU with the other one and changed the HDD. I am beginning to think that it is the MOBO. Please help? PLz and Thx!!!

My computer boots in a matter of seconds and shutdowns just as fast, has fast cursor and keyboard rates, instant click reponse (as it's been tweaked by me). It's not necessary just the computer itself but could be a performance tweaked OS and/or software. Although my computer does have auto-overclocking features on the motherboard and graphics card.
However, it's a bit overkilled if it types the letter multiple times in the row on one keypress.
Most of this tweaking is done by removing unneeded services (services.msc) and security holes from the OS and advance hacking the registry (regedit). Also software can adjust these, such as if you have a gamers mouse like mine you can create multiple profiles for speed, accuracy, etc.
You can change some of the basic speed features for the keyboard and mouse in the control panel. So it would be best and easilest to look there first:
Control Panel > Keyboard (repeat delay, repeat rate, cursor blink rate, testing)
Control Panel > Mouse (cursor click speed, movement speed, scroll rate, etc)
