RE: Different Experience with Core i3-530 + GA-H55M-UD2H

When I say dull / veiled SQ, take this into context of my 45nm setup. Another way of describing this sound is analytical and uninvolving. Overall there's the same amount of detail but it lacks that finer resolution and impact.

The key issue is PCI slots which are wired differently (more complex) and perhaps the *-S2H option does not suffer from this problem. Your experience using USB will be different.

Anyway, I'm planning to try another mobo which may offer improvement. Core i3 + DDR3 is a big step forward especially ito power consumption (7x24 playing temps were 34°C vs 45nm setup at 45°C). The mobo choice remains a challenge for now...
