There may not be a setting in the BIOS it was only a thought on my part.

What about the MB connection, do the wires match up to the pins on the MB, red to the + pin and black to the ground pin.

There are no user controls for the beeper, It will show in device manager, but there are no drivers for it.
You have still not answered Phillpower2, Re. matching + and - symbols on the plug with the motherboard pins. If you did have it on the wrong way round there is a very good chance it is damaged.

I should run some benchmark tests to see the performance what should I use?


Benchmarks for your/our satisfaction, Stress testing to verify the computer is stable when performing heavy work.
I run Core Temp whenever doing benchmarks and stress testing. Also very useful for taking screen shots. I also set a safety shut down temp.

If not already done so, advice you Create recovery disk and OS drive image using the windows built in tools. I also modify windows automatic update to control what is installed by Microsoft.

As with many of these free downloads, they are managed by a download manager, You can remove them after you finish the download and installation, be careful not to download the other bundled software.

I have tried connecting speaker both ways, but now it is connected in the right way with red wire on the left according to motherboard description, as I have mentioned in my last reply, it does beep when I press del to go into bios at start up

cores are giving high temp when running bench tests

Hi.
That is pretty good temps for 100% load on stock cooling, 28C below Tj max. CPU usage would not be that high in everyday use, even when encoding/rendering. I have seen reports from many running 24/7 with temps over 80C without problems.
If you have a game to test? what sort of temps do you get.
