You got the wrong CSR. I would call and try again (I used chat). I purchased both of my cards at separate times in October from Newegg and the CSR did not even hesitate to honor it. It all comes down to which CSR you get. Some CSR's are by the book and others are more flexible.

I have 2 cards. One is rev 1.0 and the other is rev 1.1. To be honest, I can't tell the difference between the 2.

I can confirm both FC4 and AC orders with Uplay. Thanks again.

Wow thanks. I purchased 2 970 gtx Gigabyte G1 gamings and just got off the chat with newegg and they sent 2 codes.

I just got an Asus Z87 pro from newegg and it has the DAM serial at the beginning. As mentioned in a previous post, the first digit designates the year ,D=2013, the second digit designates the month, A=October. Here is a copy and paste from the Asus forum. I have not instead the MB yet, I would...

I sent my board back on 3/18 and my RMA status shows "repair finished". I assume this means they received the board and everything checked out ok. The RMA was a little bumpy but considering the magnitude of the returns Asus did a pretty good job. Thanks.

I have to agree. I have been building computers since 1998, the days when 6gig hard drives, 233MHz cpus and 32 megs of ram were the standard. The 1155 has to be the worst platform by far, even with the new B3 rev boards. I wish I had requested a refund instead of an RMA because this platform...

Definitely sounds like the power supply. If you have another computer in the house try testing it with that power supply. You can do it without taking out the power supply. I have done it that way by putting the cases side by side. I tested many computers this way without ever removing anything.

I know you guys are talking about Crucial drives but I have the Corsair P3 128g and just recently started to have lockups. Everything was working great until the other day. A couple of times after the lockup the drive has done a scan disk and found 100's of errors. I now also get countless BSODs...

Ok, thanks for the info. Shows how much I know about headphones, lol

I was looking at the free headphones that I got from Asus. What is up with the different length in the left and right wires. The left ear bud wire is 6 inches long and the right ear bud wire is 18 inches long. Anyone else get theirs like that.

It is not a good idea to reuse the thermal paste. Whenever I have to remove the fan from the chip I always apply new paste.

Funny how the instructions on how to pack the return says to put 2 inches of padding around the MB box. When I opened my package yesterday the MB box was on top without any padding covering it. I am putting the return in the same box packed the same way.

I got my board today and I also had to call them to request the FedEx return shipment label. I just go it a few minutes ago. Oh well kind of strange that you have to call to get the return shipping label. I asked about the accessories and she said to send them all back. Seeing I had to swap...

I have gone to that site and it was stuck on RMA# issued. Funny, after my last post I went on the site again and now it says "ready for shipping". If I can get the MB by the weekend I will be happy. Fingers crossed. I am frustrated and am over reacting. Given the number of returns that have to...
