Out of curiosity, what is your sound configuration? Mine was analogue front and rear channels, so I had the speaker setup as Quadraphonic via that speaker wizard.

Yeah there are the 4570 drivers which I tried initially and the sound was outright hopeless the volume was messed up for surround sound on the analogue outs. Someone suggested going back to an earlier driver the 4530 which I did, and that was a huge improvement, however several sounds were...

After running the board for over a week I am overall happy with it! It has run stable for me, the temps all seem fine too. (I don't overclock, at least not yet). The only main issue I have with it is the onboard sound: I have surround sound which I run through the analog outs for the...

Yeah it would be the first one, the timings are 5-5-5-12. Over here the ocz seems to be more expensive than the corsair... Although I just looked a moment ago and the price for the corsair that I bought has jumped by $150 (nz) since I bought it a week ago!

See my sig to see what memory I am using. So far it has been fine. As for the IDE connectors (Parallel ATA) it only has one connector, so you can have upto two devices. (It also comes with one connector for a floppy drive) This caught me out since I have two optical drives and two hds...

I've opted for Optimal on the cpu fan which runs it at about 1300rpm (this is the stock fan). I left Q-Fan turned off for the chassis fans. My cpu idles at about 36C and while I was playing oblivion I was getting to about 45C from memory?!, the cpu fan didn't adjust, but I wouldn't expect it...

I've recently gotten a core2duo (see my sig for sys details). I'm running the stock cooler, I've also got it underclocked using the Q-Fan feature of the mobo. I think it runs at about 2000rpm normally?? but mine is running at about 1300rpm. It is pretty quiet at that speed, and my temps as...

Awesome, I finally managed to get that download, and surround sound now seems to be working fine. Thanks :)

I tried Ai Suite, it opened and I tried out Ai Gear, I wasn't impressed since it basically fooled with bios settings without telling me what it did (I think it fools with Q-Fan settings etc). As for the sound card I am thinking Audigy X-Fi, but that card is $$$ and I doubt I care about most...

Well this is driving me nuts, if anyone has any knowledge or advice it would be appreciated?? I've had a look around online and haven't been able to find anything, and the soundmax autodetect tells me that the front and rear lines are plugged into the correct jacks. At the moment I am...

I picked up the p5b deluxe wi/fi version the other day. I'm running winXP with a core2due. My sound doesn't work properly, I can get stereo working fine. But when I set it to Quadraphonic the sound becomes unstable, it sounds like I am getting reverb and the volume cuts in and out and...
