i don't know if this is related to the board or a driver or something else,
but ever since i bought the board, people say they cannot hear my voice properly through skype calls. i'm using the microsoft's lifecam cinema's mic for talking. it used to be soooo loud, that i could talk from the kitcken and the other end could hear everything clearly. now they cannot hear even when i am right in front of the PC. there is no problem with the webcam as when i plug it to my laptop, it works perfectly.

tried USB2 ports as well as USB3 ports. i cannot really tell there difference from the skype test call. but they say they cannot here. >_<

could be an issue with Windows though...
