If it's crashing during Windows installation repeatedly, my first guess would be a ram or SSD issue, though the processor or motherboard could be at fault too. It sounds like you already tried swapping out the ram between slots and also only with one dimm installed, etc. Based on the specs I am...

You may want to look into an idea called positive pressure inside a case. Positive pressure means that the case has more air going in than air going out per second. This can be caused by having too many intake fans, or a set intake fans that are more powerful than the set of exhaust fans. In...

Will do. sorry for disappearing, been busy. I will definitely try this tonight though. I will also get around to testing with speakers and clean-boot over the next couple of days.

That's great advice, I'll try a clean boot as soon as I get a chance. I don't appear to have Realtek drivers installed according Programs and Features, Revo Uninstaller, IObit uninstaller, Autoruns64, or my own memory. I can try downloading and installing it though when I get more time. I...

I just confirmed via the manual, the red one is in fact Line-Out. Additional Credit: raisonjohn

Unfortunately, the front audio port is broken due to an unrelated incident, so I can't test if using that resolves the issue. I can upload a picture of the same model from MSI's website. I have my headphones plugged into the red one, which I beleive is Line-OUT.

Alright, I checked and the headphones were plugged into the LINE-OUT port on both testing occasions. I had them plugged into this port since I got them. I'll also note that audio playback is flawless on this port with both pairs of headphones. I don't know anything about audio, but I assume...

Yeah, I have my headphones plugged into the motherboard directly. (Probably line-in but I am unsure - not home right now). I will check when I get back home. I can also check the Realtek HD Audio app and see what's up there. This seems plausible to me. I know I have them plugged in the only red...

Hi all, I have a kind of weird issue I seriously can't figure out. Today I was playing a game with friends online. I currently do not own a microphone so I wasn't expecting to be able to chat. To my surprise, when I launched Left4dead2, my friends in discord were not able to hear me, but I...

Sound like symptoms of an unstable overclock. I don't think it is normal for one of the threads to show such low utilization in task manager during a stress test. Try stepping down your overclock a bit. Then run prime 95 again. You will know the overclock is stable if it runs for an extended...

I was having some trouble with a GPU that was under warranty so I sent it in for RMA. I just got back my RMA from Gigabyte. Upon receiving the RMA part back, I checked the status online and found the boilerplate response "No trouble found after tests with multiple configurations". This was...
