What is the maximum resolution and refresh rate on your monitor via HDMI using the internal GPU?

I'm using this board but don't know why every time when start up I lost the USB keyboard, I have to unplug and replug in into another usb on back panel to get it work again?

Another one can teach me how to fix it please? :banghead:

This one works very well for me! Only front USB-ports aren't working and had to install the VoodooHDA to get the audio working.
Audio was glitchy so I bought a small USB Audio card.

BIOS F8
Intel Core i7 6700K
2x 8GB - Crucial Ballistics
Samsung SSD 750 EVO 250GB
1x BENQ 2K Monitor
NVIDEA GTX 1060 6GB - Still waiting for Nvidea to update the drivers, so I can try it in OSX environment. For now using the on-board Intel card.

Give me a day or so, I'll type up exactly what you need with possibly some screen shots on how to get onboard audio working as well as get rid of the multiple BIOs entries from being created.
