Yeah, that is what I plan to do. I really dont have a choice, atleast for a week. Will newegg take the board back, if I say its garbage? I will give it a chance though. I hope the memory I purchased will work for it. I purchase some PQI memory http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProdu...-141-164&catalog=23&manufactory=BROWSE&depa=0
This is a link to the board also http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProdu...-128-263&catalog=23&manufactory=BROWSE&depa=0

hey would this board have some software that is included that would allow me to see what the temps are inside the case and on the processor?
Thanks

Shrug i dunno if GB has any special software like ASUS does. You can always use 3rd party programs though :)

Do you know the name of any good software that I could get to monitor temps and stuff? I will find it if I know the name. :D
 
Hey guys,
Well, I finally got all moved, and to where I am going to be for a month or so.
I put My computer together in a temporary lodging facility. I will start by telling you about my motherboard.
I noticed that everything in the MB box looked pretty high quality and there was a lot of stuff in there. Wish I had took a picture. Ok so you now you know everything looked good. Well, now to some other stuff. I installed my MB into my case. I noticed that in bios my MB was able to read all of my HD space. Well, I got to installing windows, and it didnt see but 130GB. I just went on with the Install, b/c I just wanted to see how the computer would run. Next day, I did a format, and hit F6 to install my drivers. (I had to burn them onto floppy)
I am very happy with the performance of the computer. I am also just happy that it works. B/c I read a bunch of threads about people having problems with this board, but im glad that I read them after I ordered the board. My memory and everything works fine with this Board. I am now going to see about overclocking now. This board has a lot of futures for overclocking. Oh yeah, did I say that I am happy with the monitor. Thing was definately worth 229 with DVI port!
I also purchased a DVD burner, I am very happy with this also. I have a version of XCOPY, and this works great. I just need some burning software for burning the movies on my HD.
I also wish I would have gone to wireless kyb and mouse sooner. :D

Me too!
It also came with stuff to monitor temps and all that stuff. I can also overclock from windows. I havent played too much with it. I will do some reading on this board in the oc section.
 
Hey for some reason, everything that I play sounds like the chipmunks.
Anyone know what could have caused this? I havent used my 5.1 speakers yet, so its still hooked up to my monitor speakers. I am also still using the onboard sound.
Thanks
Charles

Ok, guys, I got it. :)
I dont know how it got off like that
 
Ok, I really should be starting new threads, but people are still looking at this. :D
I have a slight problem with my internet and I know that someone can help.
I am having a problem with my internet explore not being able to pull up new links when I click them from inside of a web page. the page will act like its loading up, but it wont or it will take a really long time.
Does anyone know what the deal is. I havent experienced this before. I just know that I am fed up with it already
