Thanks for the suggestions, it looks like I have a couple bulging capacitors. First time I've run into this problem - I'm guessing that means my mobo needs to be replaced.
I am currently running an older system (MSI K8N with an Athlon 64 FX55) and hope to use this as a media/TV computer once I finish with my new build. It's about 4 years old and 2 months ago it started randomly shutting off only when surfing the web (occasionally) or running a full system scan...
Noticed that my copy states only the 32 bit version is included - anyone know if its possible to get the 64 bit version or if the upgrade to ultimate will allow you to do a 64 bit install?
Couldn't hit 3ghz with mine (13x230@1.6 would create errors in Prime95 after an hour). Testing out 2.9ghz (13x225@1.5) now... Using a Freezer 64 pro. Might just be my chip b/c everything else is 100% stable at HTT 230.
I applied for the Citi PremierPass card which basically has the same $100 gift card offer yesterday (no fee). Think it matters if I apply for this one too?
Amazon is running another one of those $30 credits if you sign up for their Amazon Visa card which would make this cheaper (if you dont mind waiting for it to ship).
the premium comes with the media remote, I dont really use it though. And for those that get told they do not have them in stock, always talk to the manager to confirm. The people on the floor maybe have a 40% chance of knowing what's going on from my experience.
FYI, I just picked one up at the midtown manhattan best buy (44th and 5th). They had 18 premium consoles left as of 11:00am. There were about 4 people looking to buy one as well so I'd say if you rush over your chances arent too bad. And by the way, I called in the morning and was told on the...
Just FYI after talking to a best buy rep at a store that had them "in-stock." He mentioned that the online inventory is not always accurate as some stores will include the display units and/or units reserved for managers in the inventory.
Anyone know if BB wish certificates can be redeemed online or if you can go instore and have them order the xbox from another location and have it shipped?
By the way, some of the best buy workers on Sunday mentioned some additional small shipments may come in this week - it wont be advertised so you would just have to go to the store and check. Can anyone confirm?
I agree that Optimum is a great brand - mixes very well and tastes among the best as far as the more mainstream whey goes. I've tried quite a few flavors - cookies and cream is pretty bad, strawberry is ok but kinda sweet. My favorites are vanilla, chocolate, or chocolate mint.
On a...
if you can somehow get the original deal, i'd be interested also
just posted on rr - i like how they have a 7.6ish rating but all comments are very dissatisfied
by the way, the price of the ex71's on amazon has bounced around from $29 to $35...Sure it's not much of a price difference but then again it's not much of a price difference from the ex51's to the ex71's.
As for bodily sounds, you're generally fine unless you bring them into the bathroom....
Anyhow, I have the ex71's and have not had that problem at all - especially since the music you're listening to tends to drown out any other sounds. One thing I did notice is sometimes you can hear the cord...
There is a 10% coupon to bring it down to about $360. Look in your 'fat wallet' to find it. Since Gateway is dealing with the warranties, anyone know what their policy is on dead pixels?
