I'm building a new system around an ASUS P8P67PRO and I can move over my SB X-Fi ExtremeGamer easily enough but I was wondering how the on board sound is these days. I use this system primarily for gaming. I haven't followed the audio trends in a while so I appreciate your thoughts on this. Or...

You've been using the search feature ;) Yep, unfortunately (because it is nifty, cool looking program), after disabling PC Probe II my sound worked appropriately ever since. I've not yet checked for or tried any newer versions of PC Probe though. Glad this helped.

For a long time I've always downloaded the catalyst suite with the ATI driver. Today, it struck me that I hardly ever even look at the controls in the Catalyst suite. Should I keep installing the Catalyst suite or should I just download the drivers only? Is there something in the Catalyst driver...

Last night I noticed it booted and played the windows sound/chime before the wave volume is set to zero. It appears that the ASUS PC Probe II is causing it . . .

Bumping the FSB to 401 will produce what new frequency (what is the stock multiplier)? What kind of overclocks have others with similar hardware seen? Any noticeable heat increases?

http://secure.newegg.com/NewVersion/wishlist/PublicWishDetail.asp?WishListNumber=4667886 I just built this rig on WinXP Pro. I runs like a champ! However, every time I boot the system it defaults the wave volume controller to zero. It's not muted but the slider is always at the lowest...

http://secure.newegg.com/NewVersion/wishlist/PublicWishDetail.asp?WishListNumber=4667886 The e6300 is cooled by the kick a$$ Zalman CNPS 9500 (and AS5) I already owned. I've seen some reports of the e6300 overclocking 50%-90% on air. Like the rest of you, I wouldn't mind using some of...

Anyone have any experience with particular scenario? The case has four fans (1-120mm and 1-200mm) that are all molex connectors. Most of the fan controllers I see are 3-pin connections. Would I run into any problems with that?

For that have taken the chance on these boards, what is the verdict on them being shipped with all of the original cables?

Now this is what I'm talking about I was about to buy a plain card reader anyways. Something like this would wonderful !!

That is certainly an option for me . . .

I just got my Antec Nine Hundred in yesterday. I'm very much impressed by this case and am looking forward to installing components in it.The only thing I am a bit miffed about is the the switches that control the fans are unaccessible from outside the case once everything it buttoned up...

Forgot to mention it will be for gaming and is going in an Antec Nine Hundred case

You have obviously never seen what 12 months inside a computer case does to a rubber band. :rolleyes: Et al. I'm not looking for an aftermarket solution. Are there no other case manufacturers that include any kind noise dampening solution in their cases to minimize hard drive vibration.
