Firstly the symptoms: I have an irregular but very frequent intermittent buzz sound. Each buzz lasts for a second or less. When playing a twitch stream or my usual game (Black Desert online) this also coincides with very brief (a fraction of a second) stutters in movement. My system: BaseBoard...

Hi guys, I am currently running my recently built tower PC which has a Nvidia 2080 super GFX card. To this I have attached a Samsung QE49Q7FAM TV the specs of which are: 48.5 in, SVA, Edge LED, 3840 x 2160 pixels Viewing angles: (H/V): 178 ° / 178 ° Brightness: 450 cd/m² Static contrast: 5600 ...

Well, they do look more like what I had in mind so long as their performance is good.

Well, 2nd SSD now fitted and all is well :D

I like the look of all these external boxes but I’d rather keep everything inside the computer case instead of having lots of boxes on the desk.

Mine doesn’t seem too bad on the Asus Maximus XI BUT I am no real judge on it and I only use my PC for games but I would like to get the best sound for my 5.1 speakers

WOW guys, there is an awful lot to think over there, thank you.

Cheers Chris, I'm not sure whether I should fit one or not as I only use the machine for gaming. I have an old set of Logitech 5.1 speackers that I use.

well, yes boomerang, I suppose you're right there :D Thanks Nev, I'll have a look at those, I will only be using it for gaming

I thought general hardware was the correct section...why is it not so? I did try the forum search but it brought up so much irrelevent stuff it was hard to decipher the info I was after But, thanks for you reply.

So guys, with the current crop of high-end motherboards (Asus ROG Maximus XI Hero) providing on-board sound and sound apps my question is this: Is it worth fitting a PcIe sound card to it and if so, which are to be recommended. All the best Bob

Thanks Orbital - tidy anyway :D

That's exactly what I thought, with no EIDE HHD's in there the case looks empty. It is so quiet it's untrue I will put an extra NvMe drive in there but that won't help fill the case. I'm loving it to be honest, so much quieter and cooler than my ASUS ROG laptop.

It certainly did take a while. The OCUK Tech support chap told me to RMA the second Gigabyte Motherboard and to save waiting time, purchase another brand and they will refund me the cost of the Aorus. I just hope they honour that and do not insist on sending me a replacement as I have now paid a...

Oh cool, I thought I had to flash the BIOS

Oh OK, so here are the pages for memory and mainboard https://1drv.ms/u/s!Asn3yHYpiYIPgY8o4UXHpbqVNyBpLw?e=U8ARZm https://1drv.ms/u/s!Asn3yHYpiYIPgY8n0Rqby00WA9snqQ?e=E9eLVE

Right, I'm now home and the first task is to show you the CPU-Z readout on the processor https://1drv.ms/u/s!Asn3yHYpiYIPgY8mEzPbvZv-DMQttg?e=aoLddF

Pics as soon as I get back home, I’m at Bisley ranges until tomorrow evening :D CPU-Z thanks mrbell, will do as soon as I can

I have somehow managed to miss most of the posts on page 3 of this thread. Mrbell, I am so sorry for missing those posts but I sincerely thank you for reading those manuals and trying to help me. Regarding the stepping of the CPU I have no idea so will have to research how to confirm that...

cheers guys, Im Soooo relieved, I thought I was going daft LOL. I'll have a look at the XMP thing, I also have a newer BIOS to put on but I think I'll just enjoy a working PC for now, I don't want to wreck it just yet :D
