Hi, my onboard audio on my EVGA X99 Micro doesn't seem to work. I have tried reinstalling the drivers, setting the default output in Hardware and Sound and I have enabled on-board audio in the BIOS. Will a soundcard rectify my problem? Thanks

Technically yes, since its an alternative to the onboard.

Um, context? Is this a new motherboard, or a new issue on an old motherboard? Have you contacted EVGA support?

It's a new motherboard.

I also tried posting on their forums but I got no reply.

Does Singapore have authorized retailers that can help you return or fix your motherboard???

Did you try go back to the place you bought it, then get a refund??

Last time I bought a gtx 660 at simlim square I found out that my power supply does not have enough power to support a gtx660.

After 3 days I go back then they give me a refund.

If it is not broken, let's fix till it is.

I got my parts from someone who builds PCs. I didn't get it from Sim Lim Square. I can't get a refund.
