Are there any STB Media Center Extenders -- other than HTPC or Xbox360 -- currently available?
Bought one of these, then realized that I need HDMI and my xbox360 lacks HDMI and I really do not want to build a HTPC at this time.
Worst case scenerio for me are
a)I get charged full price for something that I would have paid for if I had to.
or
b)The order gets cancelled.
I can accept either outcome.
I take no responsibility for other peoples actions... As I said in first post, it is a possible deal.
Opportunity may be dead, as there are reports of Staples calling some members and saying that they will not do it.
I have not seen this posted, so I thought I would post it.
Here is a possible deal.
I was going to purchase a VISA gift card for my parents and was shopping online.

I think that the people who paid $20 for shipping are going to get ground service, as faster shipping options were offered at considerably more money.
Although I tried for an hour to buy one, I could not get through checkout.
I was hoping to use one for viewing powerpoints in class since I am...
In for 1 for $7.09 including $2.10 tax and free delivery on Tuesday 12/13! This was due to a legit $25 coupon --mailed to me from staples, 2x $20 staples rewards coupons from items I bought a few months ago, and the $30.00 rebate on this item.
Corsair finally came through!
I was expecting a simple one port pass through replacement board.
Instead they sent me their new 6G SATA upgrade kit!
Although it took longer than expected, I am very happy with the final results.
Is there any way to get the case fans power level below 40% on the P8P67 Deluxe?
I used three Cooler Master R4-C2R-20AC-GP fans (two on one case fan header one on another), so that I have plenty of power in reserve and even at 40% they are sort of noisy for my current setup location.
Why...
I think that those who bought from Newegg have the option to return their current board and get whatever board they desire within the 90 day (or longer) return Period if they received the email from Newegg.
Way to take care of the customer Newegg!
Wonder if we can do advance RMAs
Received my black Xbox 360 controller on Friday.
It came with a black dongle that reads Microsoft.
For device longevity, Is it better to leave it plugged in 24/7 or to only plug it in when needed?
Still have code 30 on motherboards LED after wake from S3.
With PLL overvolt off, the PC wakes up and everything seems to work fine. Just that the 30 remains on the LED.
Starting to wonder if showing and retaining 30 on the LED after wakeup is normal operation. I thought the code would...
I could barely run prime95 on my 2600k @ stock with the factory heatsink. 75-80c under load..
Put a hyper 212+ on and temps are much better. 55-60c under load.
I would imagine that if you are running an app limited to three or less threads and need more speed but are having heat problems, you could leave one - three of the cores at stock or even undercloced and overclock the other cores.
There may be other benefits. Multiply cores by two for...
Called Corsair today.
Apparantly they are waiting for parts to be shipped to them before responding to me.
I was told that I should have a new hot swap board within a week.
I have had problems with waking from S3 sleep under each and every bios version released to date for the P8P67 Deluse.
On bios versions without PLL Overvolt and with versions including it but with PLL Overvolt disabled I am left with 30 displaying on the Q-Code after the pc wakes up.
With...
I am having this problem where my system completes resume from S3 sleep but the Q-Code light on the P8P67 Deluxe stays stuck on 30.
Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions on how to fix this?

Juan_Jose,
If possible, dimming or disabling Q-Code a few seconds after successful boot would be great. With that functionality Q-Code serves its purpose as a diagnostic device and it fits the request for dimming/disable of Q-Code.
Q-Led is fine as it only comes on for a few seconds during...
I read the manual multiple times and did not notice anything about a switch for the Q-Code
I think some dark tinted plastic may be my best option at this point.
I have a P8P67 Deluxe in Corsair 800D and the ASUS Q-Code's bright red is overpowering for my desired dark case interior.
What are my options, other than putting black electric tape over the Q-Code and completely blocking it off?
I bought a i7-2600k and an Asus P8P67 Deluxe from Newegg and did not receive the free Civilization V digital download, so I am looking for someone who either already has the game that does not need another copy, or someone who does not want the game, to make me a sale offer.
Please PM me your...
Thank you.
Earlier today before I noticed your post I called Corsairand was told to send an email to email [email protected] for the parts,
I sent an email containing the story of what happened and my contact info today around 1:00pm EST.
I an still waiting to hear a reply, so I...
I requested a RMA from Newegg today.
I told them about the bubbling and they told me that they will have to inspect the card and they will deny my card if there is any physical damage. I hope they do not try to blame any damage that was done to the card by a defect that the card had prior to...
I have had alot of bad luck with parts ordered from Newegg lately. I had a motherboard and CPU combo that failed to post upon delivery and within minutes of getting my replacements working, the video card craps out. I know what I am doing and I have a technical college diploma in computer...
I was building a PC using a p8p67 deluxe, i7-2600k, and MSI 570 GTX and while I was installing Win 7, the card died. Tested by installing in another PC.
If it means anything the sticker on the top of the card appears slightly bubbled.
I know the card should have had plenty of airflow as it...
I am not going to chance it.
I would rather play it safe until the warranty is up. I think that the 570 GTX may be just getting by at that time and may in need some OC assistance.
If anyone has any hot swap boards from a Corsair 800d that they would like to sell, please see my post here.

I was swapping a driive out and the part of the connector that is on the case side came out with the drive.
If anyone who removed the hot swap section of a Corsair 800D would like to sell one or more of the hot swap boards, please contact me by posting below or sending me a pm.
I removed a drive from the second hot swap bay and it pulled a majority of the connector with it.
Does anyone know if the 3 year warranty on the MSI GTX 570 is still valid if the factory heatsink is removed and replaced if service is needed like what is done for watercooling?
I just received a version of 3dmark11 with a graphics card. I plan to see how my purchase choice of a 570 compares to 6970s after I complete building our pc.
I do not like using the push pin system. I prefer the screw down system used on many of the aftermarket cooling options.
I have never used a Intel OEM cooler on any of my home built PCs. I always opt to use a better performing aftermarket cooler.
It is too bad that Intel can not supply us...
Thank you for the help.
I have been unable to get into BIOS and the video card died while trying to get the system working. Verified by reinstalling video card into known working system.
I tried putting each stick individually into each slot and ram I bought is on the motherboards approved...
