I am having problems with a few things but I believe that, from reading other peoples' problems, that it is a grounding issue. The reason I say this is because simply touching a usb plug or a headphone jack to the input freezes the system. I also thought this was a problem with my motherboard, as some of the SATA ports weren't functioning properly, so I called up Asus. They walked me through a few different options, send back, malfunctioning bridge...or a grounding issue. Also, I'm not sure if this is normal, but my PSU, a Corsair CX750M, sometimes makes a high pitch squeal, and I thing I have matched it up that it makes sound when my GPU does more than nothing. For example: as I type this question next to my computer, I can hear a response from my PSU. Is it a problem, in my PSU or is it a grounding issue? If so how do I fix it?
Oh, and I pulled to motherboard all out and have it set up antistatic out of the case, and the SATA ports DO work. I think freezing still might happen usb/headphone jack wise though. Thank you for your time and help. System Specs:
