Just bought a diablotek EVO case. Installing a gigabyte H67MA-USB3-B3 motherboard. There is a cable coming from the front of the case that has 4 active pins in a 5 pin connector. Pins are VCC, D-, D+, ground, and the fifth has no pin. What is this connector? Gigabyte instruction really does not detail where this connector goes. All the other cables from the case were marked as to what they are, this one only has the pin-out markings. Thanks, Tim

Check Power Supply

Keep the drivers up-to-date. Check Gigabyte's page for that.

There should be some sort of beeps then. No beeps is an indication the CPU or RAM is not seated properly. You need to refer to board manual if there are beeps.
There is also the matter of... Never mind I just noticed the CPU is an 8 core CPU, but the board supports quad core.

Double check my findings and go from there. Good Luck

Try resetting the BIOS to defaults. This will clear any custom settings, so make sure you are comfortable doing so.

Hi,
Gigabyte GA-H61M-D2-B3 Motherboard supports 2/4/5.1/7.1-channel HD audio, whereas Cambridge Soundworks SW320 is 2.1 (only). Hence, the PC should be configured to provide 2.1 Channel output. The audio of your system may be configured to 2.1. So, please check the Realtec Audio sound manager/ configuration from the control panel or from tray (near clock) and set it to 2.1 (2 Channel Stereo Output).
Moreover, audio on your PC may be running on default HD Audio Drivers. So, you may also download/ install the latest drivers for Gigabyte GA-H61M-D2-B3 Motherboard.
(Refer to download section at the bottom of the page). After installing audio drivers, you would be able to configure the audio.

Hope it helps! Good Luck! Thanks for using Fixya!

I hope this helps.

Good day..!!Since your motherboard required for the 4 pin of your power supply,yes its true it wouldnt work if its not connected.All you have to do is to buy for it power suuply cable,or change your power supply with 4 pin..thanks

GIGABYTE Z68MZ-D2H-B3 motherboard has LGA1155 Socket
Below are the 2 videos illustrating the board socket and processor details and the procedure of adding the processor. Watch carefully and fix the processor.




Let me know if any further clarification/ assistance is required.

Hi Red,

I had a similar problem on a different case though.They might have similar causes.

The front usb port circuit board was connected to the MB with a ribbon cable. The prior owner had the cable attached backwards. It worked fine, until you plugged in a USB device, instant crash.

Can't say for certain this is what is happening with you, but it is a possibility.

I'm sure you already know, pin 1 is the striped cable. On the board pin 1 has an arrow.

Best regards

Mike

Both boards would be fine considering the hardware you are installing with it are good for gaming, sometimes,games dont get affected much by boards, they are affected by RAM,VGA and the processing power of your processor.
Very little or minimal effect are felt by differentiating boards. The right question here would be which board would last longer or take more abuse vs the price you have paid for it. For games, specially online ones, such as RPG,MMORPG,etc, are heavy abuser of system resources and hardware.
You might want to add in your list decent cooling systems,may it be AIR cooled or Water cooled. For better efficiency and durability of the parts, secially if you are aiming to overclocking.
Heat renders parts life span almost in half,as I experienced it.
