    Built-in audio chip quality is terrible

    Thing is, here in Lithuania, people are used to try evading problems and work because they don't want to do anything, even shops and etc. I'm almost sure they would just say 'oh your headphones are bad; that's not a mobo problem; check your wiring; blah blah'. Gotta give a shot anyway I guess...

    Oh boy, getting one of these will be a problem in my country. Still can't believe how this can change over a mobo. Anyway, thank you everyone, I appreciate it!

    Built-in audio chip quality is terrible

    Well my motherboard is not for haswell CPUs. I did try a really cheap sound card (Creative Sound Blaster 5.1 VX), but that also came out with really low volume (tho the quality was fine). I didn't want to use it because even my speakers were barely 'hearable' on volumes they used to be fine on...

    And I thought I know about these things... So basically I need to try a headphone amplifier OR contact my motherboard's seller? Did I get it?

    Built-in audio chip quality is terrible

    Hello everyone, I am here to hopefully solve this problem I keep having and it's killing me. I already googled to death about this problem but nothing came up even close to what I'm dealing with. Here's the longer story: I upgraded my PC, that includes a new motherboard, GPU, RAM and PSU...
