Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
I just got my corsair 1300 today.

Yeah I was doing a comparison and the Realtek 898 comes with Creative X-Fi fidelity M2 software including THX Studio Pro
I am just going to go with the Corsair 1300 analog and if it does not sound good then I guess I will add a sound card.
Thanks everyone!
I have been running UD5H for about 2 weeks now since Ivy was released along with i5 3570k in it and it has been rock solid stable on BIOS F6, no issues whatsoever, no lockups, freezes or anything.
I am extremely happy with this board I would say it is one of the best I have used in a really...
To be honest it not the price of the soundcard, I just did not want to worry about another piece of hardware especailly if i already got onboard.
I would rather go the USB route if the onboard will not cut it.
But I really only use this machine for games, no movies, or music, so really trying...
So I recently upgraded to a Z77 that has Realtek 898 on board and heard the 898 is one of the best onboard audio.
I only care about audio for gaming and was looking to get a headset with mic.
From what I have been reading if you don't have a dedicated sound card, you should get a USB one...

Take a look at all those negative reviews from RMA.
I don't get how they are the Top mobo. I am looking at either Gigabyte or MSI for my next mobo.
probably a combination of this
