Okay i just posted my specs a few posts up but i have been having problems with this board recently...

I get LOUD pops out of my speakers from time to time out of the speakers..

AND

Im having another sound problem out of this board...i have a Audigy Sound Blaster 4 card hooked up to the board that i have been using for years in my old comp that i switched over to this one..never had any problems out of it..got a 5.1 speaker system hooked up to the new comp as well...After about 3-4 hours of continuous music playing thru winamp...my music will just stop playing and i will not be able to get ANY SOUND out of my speakers for some reason. I can go to youtube and videos will play but no sound...i went into the speaker setting to hit the test button for my speakers but when i test them it will not play any sound of of the speakers either...Im not too sure what the problem is...


EDIT: Another weird thing is that im picking up a radio signal through my speakers....

It is, and really loud judging from some other reviews as well.

Edited my post, because it doesn't seem to be as big of as a letdown as dude is making it out to be.

Got bored and ran some benchmarks this morning. I think I already posted my 3D Mark 11 in here, it's the same score. which is lower than I expected.
Here's Heaven's. no idea where 26.3 came from because I never saw it drop lower than 32.

When overclocking gpus, should the current HSF be enough of should I get an aftermarket one? How would you even install an aftermarket HSF on a GPU?
