    Are you satisfied with a board, no freezes? Can you test headphones on front panel, I read that many people reported buzzing noise?

      I have tested front headphone briefly but that was a while back. All my audio goes via a SONY STR-DN860

      My board has been running fine. I had it up to 4.0 just to see if it worked, which it did. I keep it at 38.5 which is more than enough for me. I have the ram at 2933

    If you use 4 sticks of DDR4 does this put more strain on the memory bus ?
