I just built a SG07 rig with an Asrock H67M-ITX/HT. I too get slight distortions from the front Headphones jack. Did not try disconnecting the USB cable. I need those front ports as well. Lack of proper shielding could be the problem. What do you think?

I bought a SG07 just today.

Does anyone know how one can change the front USB 2.0 ports on the SG07 to USB 3.0 ports?

Can this SG07 case fit a Powercolor 6950 1Gb The heatpipes may be a problem.

Fixed The reason was, Bad contact with Sata Connecter on the HDD. This has been fixed. Just finished installing Windows 7 on it. No need for any additional Sata drivers or anything. Just works.

I have a Asus P5E-VM HDMI board. I am installing a brand new Sata2 Seagate Barracuda ST3500630AS 500Gb hdd. The problem? Bios detects the HDD, but Win7 Ultimate x64 Install does not. Even if I load the sata drivers. Change Sata ports. However once I slap the HDD in an external...

Does the Asus P5E-VM-HDMI support after Bios updates: 2x4Gb DDR2-800 Dimms? 4x2Gb DDR2-800 Dimms? (I think this should work) 4x4Gb DDR2-800 Dimms?? The motherboard manual states a Max of 8Gb of Ram with 2Gb per Dimm slot.

Have any of you guys been able to use the USB boot feature on this board? I've tried Fedora 9 USB Live and even Ubuntu, but the system refuses to boot. Even after I disable all other boot drives except the USB one.

I have this board with the 405 bios. The problem I am facing is that no matter what OS, the HDD sometimes powers down. I dont know if this is a PSU issue or a motherboard Issue. It cannot be an OS issue, as this sometimes happens randomly even at boot. Sometimes while I am in the middle of...

According to the Coretemp Author: Intel defines a certain Tjunction temperature for the processor. In the case of Yonah it is 85C° or 100C°. First of all the program reads from a Model Specific Register (or MSR), and [i]detects the Tjunction temperature. A different MSR contains the temperature...

I do not have a problem with Load Temps. They average around 53C on Stock Intel cooler at Stock settings. The problem is that Idle NEVER goes below 45C. It seems like it'll never drop even if you used Liquid Nitrogen! :P

Alright, I cleaned up all the original Intel thermal goo and put some AS5 on it. Re-seated the stock HSF and Coretemp still shows 45 at boot and idle. :( These thermal Diodes are killing me.

I Just removed the Stock HSF and re-oriented it... The temps are still the same. No Change at all. :( Ofcourse I am not using Arctic silver or any other after market paste, just whatever that came with the Stock HSF. I even droped the Vcore down to the lowest possible setting of 1.100...

I just finished Installing an E8400 cpu on a Asus P5E-VM-HDMI uatx board in a Thermaltake VF1000BWS Lanbox SFF case. Initially when I was running on an old Bios, Asus's Probe Utility and bios were reporting CPU temps @ 3C idle! The Mobo temps were at 39C. I flashed the Bios to newest...
