Chris - when will you post the Windows 8 customizations and tweaks?

 

Thanks Chris.

Finally got my shipment notification for the Carbon case which I ordered the day that Chris posted the build. Wait is almost over....

[dlbeck]

Finally got the case. First time building a pc. I'm following the pics closely from the article. I don't understand how the Samsung SSD is attached to the case how its positioned in the picture. The screws to the case are facing up...confused. If I turn it over then that puts the Sotm SSD filter in a bad position.

 

Also, how do you hook up the Red Wine Audio battery supply to the mobo and Sotm USB card?

 

thanks a bunch.

Thanks Chris. How do I integrate the power button of the case to the RWA PS? Or do I?

[dlbeck]

Never mind. Got it. Need another cup of coffee :-)

Anyone know the max number of channels I can get on hdmi audio out with the Intel 2800MT mobo? 5.1?

My carbon build running JRiver is causing some major stuttering during song playback. Anyone else have that problem or know what would be causing it. Running ASIO through a Mytek DAC. I'm at a loss. Thanks for any help.

Yes sir it is. I've read on the JRiver thread that its possibly the Asio drivers aren't up to date for Win8. Thanks for your help.

[dlbeck]

Ok. I don't know what is causing it, thus the post. What is our opinion on what the issue would be with the 4 channels that I'm running vs the 6 that you are running. What's the theoretical difference?

[dlbeck]

Sorry, probably a dumb question: why aren't the subs viewed as channels? Do you want any more info from me? I tried increasing the buffer size both in JRiver and within the USBPAL driver. Thanks for your help Ted.
