    I don't know why cpu-z isn't showing duel channel. Bios shows ram in slots 1&3. I thought i read at the official gigabyte forum that someone else mentioned that cpu-z wasn't detecting duel channel either so he downloaded a different program and it showed duel channel active. I will go back and...

    Straightened it out this morning after getting some sleep and pulling my head out of my a**. Haven't installed an OS or partioned in a long time. The Antec 300 cable management is ok but i think they have room for improvement. It does take some time to get the cables routed to look half way...

    The Antec 300 case does not come with a case speaker but the motherboard manual shows a connection for one. Would it be a good idea to purchase a case speaker for beep troubleshooting codes or is it not needed?

    Yea, thats what i mean, it's probably unnecessary for my build. It does make the stock one look like a dwarf though.
