For all that have audio problems, for 30$ you can buy this card: http://www.amazon.com/Creative-Soundbla ... B0044DEDC0

it works perfectly

Cool, thanks for the advice.
Does that mean I can buy any Gigabyte Mobo and simply use that thing for sound?

yes, you can buy any motherboard and this soundcard should work, plug n play
Just go to Sound in System Preferences and change the Output to the X Fi Go Pro USB device.

I have the Creative X-Fi Surround which also work as a USB audio device under Snow Leopard and Lion : http://www.amazon.com/Creative-Soundbla ... y_e_text_b

But it is more expensive than the X-Fi Go! Pro you listed.

I read somewhere that some features of the X-Fi Surround do not work under lion such as the volume knob. Is that right?

Yes, the volume knob does not work. But I don't consider this a problem as it is expected (the thing is designed to work under Windows) and also because my speakers have a volume control themselves.

Can someone help me out perhaps? I did a User DSDT install with no DSDT on the desktop, set bios correctly etc all with a 2600k and Z77-DS3H.... problem is that when I tell the system to sleep, the system only sleeps for 10secs and then wakes up, also if I shut the system down, it does a restart instead? Everything else is working great. I'm in 10.7.4, and I'm switching between HD3000 and an old 8800gt gfx card... any advice?

I just found that last night too.

Is there any recommendation for this board as far as the i7 3770 vs. the 3770k?

I have been having trouble with my board where i was having constant KP's with 16gig (2x8g) ram installed, both in OSX and windows (constant BSOD with memory_managment warnings), but no issues with just one 8gig (either stick).

I have found on a site some people recommending to set the base clock to 100.1 instead of auto or 100 and that seems to have solved my KP problems although running memtest inside OSX i still get some failures (memtest86+ from a USB drive showed no errors after hours of running multiple passes).

Also suggested is that F8 bios has helped so i'm gonna try go up to that now.
