Are you talking about "coil whine" when you said "static headaches" ?

There are 10 types of people in the world: Those who understand binary, and those who don't.

Just some helpful stuff: You're - You are, Your - Your car, They're - They are, Their - Their car, There - Over there.

I think he meant static headaches as in constant headaches.

 

Alright.

 

You won't be able to overclock, well technically you 'can' but it won't be as good as a Z87 platform. Solid board.

 

True, I saw 1150 and thought it was a Z87 I didn't even know B85 was a thing....

I didnt even overclock much to begin with. I dont care that much. If it meets my demands i see no point in overclocking too much

Then that is fine I guess.

 

And i did mean the coil whine

 

I haven't had experience with the board and I haven't found reviews on it so not sure what the coil whine is like.

 

I thought so too. Will it still fit haswell.

 

And yes it will.

Then you should be fine. ASrock has pretty good boards.

 

Should have mentioned that, ASrock has had some pretty reputable boards, I know before people wouldn't even think about them but today they are pretty decent boards.

you can actually try and fix that ... just pinpoint which component makes the noise and smear it in hot glue or other more covering, securing stuff sometimes clear nail polish works.

 

Edit ... fixed some spelling  

(1) high frame rate (2) ultra graphics settings (3) cheap...>> choose only two<<...

 

if it's never been done then i'm probably tryna do it. (((((((Bass so low it HERTZ)))))))
