New computer build, working out kinks. I have the audio maxed out, but I can barely hear it. I only have headphones and I have them plugged into the front I/O ports. They work fine on my other computer.

Maybe its my drivers? I installed the ones on the dvd. I looked at the drivers on the website, but there's no instructions on how to install them.
i7 4770k
windows 8.1
RM750 psu
h100i
corsair vengeance 2400mhz 2x8


Maybe that's why I'm having stability issues when i try to OC to 4.4 ghz. Auto turbo boost works fine, 4.2 works too.

Installing downloaded drivers is not much different to installing them from the manufacturer's CD, so if you can do one you shouldn't have any problem doing the other, there's just one difference:

Downloaded drivers are delivered in "zip" format to to keep the size of the download as low as possible for faster download time, so all you have to do is "unzip" the package when the download is complete. You unzip it by right-clicking the zip file and choosing "Extract here".

When extraction is complete, look for an install.exe or setup.exe file and double click it to start the installation.
