StaticPulse 262 Posted June 13, 2015 So I bit the bullet and made my impulse buy of the year. Grats, I've been wary on them since I read an article about rupturing capacitors geysering electrolyte through the top vent. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
QuattroGam3r 508 Posted June 13, 2015 Grats, I've been wary on them since I read an article about rupturing capacitors geysering electrolyte through the top vent. I hadn't heard about that. Maybe I should've coughed up the extra $38 for extended warranty, eesh. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Haha... Microsoft. "We make consoles so happy to be turned on they splode." But nothing new in the year since any of that was posted, so i'm not too worried.

Swizzy 2084 Posted June 13, 2015 I've had my Xbox One since a month or so after it was first released, and i've used mine ALOT... i also have it in a very warm room... so... pretty sure it's a uncommon issue that a few unlucky ppl just happened to get... Basically, it probably boils down to a bad batch of components... it happens to everyone 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Basically, it probably boils down to a bad batch of components... it happens to everyone I'm usually not an early adopter just for that reason. I'd rather absorb peoples input and see if it's a good buy. To be honest, i'm really looking forward to the graphics upgrade for gaming. I could care less about all the media center extras, I have my Raspberry Pi (OSMC) for all that. But i did hear a rumor about DVR coming to live tv on Xbone, so that might be worth using.

QuattroGam3r 508 Posted June 18, 2015 Yeah, can't wait. Just finished setting up TV (ir blaster doesn't work ( , it's a receiver) so going to DL my Halo MCC Finally after messing around with audio settings for a minute, I get surround passthrough over hdmi working from live tv to my Pioneer Elite receiver.

StaticPulse 262 Posted June 21, 2015 Why does everyone but M$ understand how to make it "just work" This is the EXACT reason why I'm also avoiding WIndows 10 like the plague for at least its first 6 months. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
QuattroGam3r 508 Posted June 21, 2015 This is the EXACT reason why I'm also avoiding WIndows 10 like the plague for at least its first 6 months. Yeah, that's what I usually do. I signed up for the july 29th upgrade option, but i'll probably just pull the iso out and use it to do a fresh install on my VM. I'm more afraid that some programs won't run on W10 than anything else, so it's better to sit back and see what issues pop up. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
