Had some spare time this evening to install some games
Eve online
Team fortress 2
Mirrors edge
Get really bad crackles / pops and a high pitch squeal through my speakers
FPS on all the games above must be around 5 up to maybe 15 max
Run the 3dmark06 benchmark thats on my desktop and got the awesome score of 3299
nothing close to the 21888 quoted on the build support web page
I think theres something really wrong
Will call support again from work tomorrow
