Thanks bro just checked it out..they dont have anything for audio. saw something for my Bluetooth however

[RhymePaladin]

npz but do you still have the issue with the headphones?

[RhymePaladin]

if you still have the issue and you are running win8.1 then you could also use the audio drivers provided for win8 aswell

[moses_boss12]

I have updated all Windows drivers..problem still here

[RhymePaladin]

just try this..head over to the link i provided,,then enter windows 8 as your os (even if youre running 8.1) then download the audio drivers..you only need one..most likely get the realtek audio driver if this doesnt work use trial and error with the other three drivers..the most commom issue on these laptops are due to corrupt audio drivers

I got it sought out ..This is for users who updated to windows 8.1,. there seems to be a driver incompatibility.
Will give full details for anyone who may be facing the problem

Step

1. Download the Audio driver from ASUS website, you must download the one for windows 7 64 bit V 600110400.

2. Disable your current Sound Card in the Device Manager Application ( Control Panel> Sound Card>Right Click on Sound Card >Disable)

3.Restart System

4.Check and make sure the sound card is disable

5. Install The Driver just Downloaded

6. Restart Your System

7. You good to go from there

This solution would actually solve a lot of problems, like Apps such as NETFLIX from streaming or Music coming out of Sub woofers and not speakers .

NB Remember only use the Windows 7 driver..anything else would not work.

isnt this just the same as having a ramdisk setup?

[desert punk]

Here's some tweaks for those who have an ssd.Some of these are actually quite good.
I aint too sure about disabling pagefile.

you really don't need pagefile if you have plenty RAM. I have 8gb and i disabled my pagefile

When you remove power, the information lost with a ramdisk

Not the greatest idea. ... the day you decide to fire up any program that requires more than what is free of your 8gb.... Guess who is going to be greeted with a blue screen related to memory

I suggest leaving it because a memory related crash in the middle of what you were working on or playing isn't fun.

Also have to mention 8gb isn't plenty. ... not anymore

the largest program I run is battlefield 4 and that takes up 2gb of ram. It would do for most people.

looking to buy a new pc
*not for gaming though*

what do you intend to do use it for? those are decent specs, should be futureproof for a few years well, the only thing is, I would have liked a discrete graphics card in the second option as well

[Chimera]

honestly just to use as a office pc

thats a local price,was trying to find the same thing online but no luck

[Spitfir3]

if its an office pc then those specs are more than fine ..a separate gpu isn't much needed for office work i think those dell optiplex come with an intel hd4000 onboard which should be sufficient..only further upgrade i would recommend is an ssd for the OS

[ismithx]

well for an office pc the second one good but spitfir3, i don't really think he needs an ssd, 7200rpm drives boot and move reasonably fast
