they're all the same IIRC, and they tend to come with the motherboard

Why do you want a motherboard speaker? The LED debuggers on motherboards are do superior.

You could just get fancy like i do with my weird dell motherboard, i hacked the bios so that when it successfully starts the motherboard leds(and powerled) do a triple flash but thats more trouble then its worth to be honest.

I'm sure you can find one on amazon or ebay or something :P they're simple and cheap, and mostly meant for dianosing problems!

They aren't the same as the ones meant for playing music.

Remember to be a good citizen and choose a 'best answer' when your problem has been resolved!

(that way people know when a problem's been resolved)

As far as I know, the Gigabyte Z97X-SLI doesn't have them.

Ah, you're correct.

Just buy any motherboard speaker than, they are all the same. I haven't seen a motherboard that came with a speaker for a little while, but then again they usually have the LED debuggers.

Wait, what?

The motherboard speaker comes with the case / chassis not with the motherboard.

Motherboard manufacturers don't supply them, the chassis manufacturer does.

 

From what I know, Corsair does not supply a motherboard speaker with their cases -- even the top-of-the-line 900D.
