    [SOLVED] Creative Labs Sound Blaster Z with Sennheiser 58x Jubilee siounds bad.

    So, like, I wasn't going to come back to my post because I feel like a massive moron. But.. you were right about your first response.. I promise I'm not technologically challenged or anything like that, I'd like to consider myself pretty intelligent in the computer hardware field as it's what I...

    [SOLVED] Creative Labs Sound Blaster Z with Sennheiser 58x Jubilee siounds bad.

    I'll have to wait until tomorrow to give it a try as I won't be on my computer today. I'll update you when I test it out and see how it works. I'm hoping it isn't the headphones considering they're one of the more enthusiast pairs I've purchased (not necessarily the price, but the brand) and...

    [SOLVED] Creative Labs Sound Blaster Z with Sennheiser 58x Jubilee siounds bad.

    I have the Crystalizer turned off, as I read that on another forum, but I play mostly competitive shooters and need surround sound for positional awareness and all that. But even in games such as Mortal Kombat 11, which doesn't necessarily require surround sound, sounds muffled almost. Best way...

    [SOLVED] Creative Labs Sound Blaster Z with Sennheiser 58x Jubilee siounds bad.

    If you look at the card from the back, it's the second to last on the left side, the one marked with headphones. My 58x is a single pin 3.5 jack. I feel as tho if it were plugged into any of the other audio ports then the headphones wouldn't have sound altogether. But I'm pretty new to the...

    [SOLVED] Creative Labs Sound Blaster Z with Sennheiser 58x Jubilee siounds bad.

    Recently I purchased the Sennheiser 58x Jubilee from Massdrop as the overwhelming majority of comments on the headphones was that they're absolutely incredible. Plugging the headphones directly into my motherboard, the sound quality was good but the volume level was very quiet for my liking...

    Some games crashing to desktop after RAM change

    Apologies, Calvin. Here's a link to the kit I ordered. https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=20-231-977&Ignorebbr=true I ran MemTest to see if it made any issues apparent but everything seemed just fine.

    Some games crashing to desktop after RAM change

    In 2016 I built my first gaming desktop to get away from console limitations. Since then, I've upgraded and changed the desktop to the point of it being essentially a completely different computer, aside from the RAM I had in it from the start. 16GB (2x8GB) of G.Skill Ripjaw 2133. Last week I...

    MSI Z170A-GAMING-M3 motherboard won't post. Solid red CPU light.

    I've tried clearing CMOS many times, using both a jumper and taking the battery out (one time leaving it for nearly 2hrs). And if I recall correctly, I did have network hooked up when it attempted the update. I suppose RMAing is my only option. Third times the charm I suppose. Thank you for you...

    MSI Z170A-GAMING-M3 motherboard won't post. Solid red CPU light.

    alexoiu Thank you for the surprisingly quick response, but is that really the only solution? I would like to mention that I had no option on thw update. I powered it on and was prompted with the "please wait"

    MSI Z170A-GAMING-M3 motherboard won't post. Solid red CPU light.

    So, I built a new gaming rig not much more than a month ago, however, one day I restarted it and it would power on and off repeatedly. I assumed the issue to be the MB after doing some troubleshooting and damaged the socket in the process so ordering a new MB was inevitable. After about a week...
