Hi

Just got an Asus P5KC and I have a few issues I'd like a bit of a hand with ;)

OK.

1. There is a constant high pitched whining from it, as well as ticking from the motherboard, and whenever i move the mouse another noise is made from the motherboard.

2. This thing doesn't like to overclock ... for example yesterday I bumped the fsb from 333 to 350, ran orthos and less than 5 minutes in it froze. If I bump the fsb from 333 to 400 with a vcore of 1.32 and leave the ram as it is it'll save, reboot then the screen sits on standby til I reboot again and the mobo displays an overclocking failed message.

Every review seems to love this board ... what is wrong with mine?

Do I need to rma this and use a 3rd mobo for this build?!

thanks
