Test yours first. I do have one EA500 that works fine with a stepped sine wave UPS.
Update - the 2 of mine that don't work with stepped sine wave UPS's are EA500D, which I believe are newer ones made by Delta. The 1 that does work is an older EA500 (without the D) that I believe was made by...
I ended up replacing my 2 EA500's with Corsair power supplies. I found a statement from one of their employees in an on-line forum (don't remember which one) that their PS's with active PFC work with stepped sine wave UPS's. I don't have a large sample size, but I've tested the 2 I bought and...
Yep, some work, some don't. I have three EA500's, and only 1 works with simulated sine wave UPS's. I have 2 CyberPower, 4 APC Back-Ups, and 1 old Belkin and 2 of my 3 EA500's refuse to work with any of the UPS's. The 3rd EA500 works with all of the UPS's. I tried to get Antec to replace the...
You might want to give it a try and return it if it doesn't work. I actually have one Antec EA500 that works with a simulated sine wave UPS, so I'm 1 for 3. You might get lucky.
For my 2 that don't, I found it to be cheaper to replace the power supplies than to get a true sine wave UPS...
This is a very good price, but note that these do not produce a true sine wave when on battery.
Some computer power supplies with Power Factor Correction don't like anything but pure sine wave. For example, I have 2 Antec Earthwatts 500s that won't work with a CyberPower 1500VA. However, a...
Webster, TX Fry's is bundling retail box CPUs (mine is a SLB8V). I haven't put it together yet so I don't know if the board has a recent enough BIOS to support the chip.
Interesting... I've purchased 2 E8400 combos at Fry's, both with retail boxed CPUs. The first was several months ago, and the second was this week (w/ ECS G31T-M for $160) . This is at the SE Houston Fry's (Webster).
I would have personally preferred an ASUS P35 MB, but the Gigabyte has a good reputation, too. There seemed to be plenty at the SE Houston (Webster) Fry's.
The HD channels are already in digital form, so the I'm fairly sure that no encoding is needed. I believe that the card just saves the data to hard drive as a transport stream.
I get the same result with audio. The audio device installs and claims to be working, but no audio from the TV via HDMI. Unfortunately, I don't have another TV or HDMI equiped computer to test with, so I can't be certain which device is at fault. I do know that my TV will only accept...
The HD Homerun does look interesting, but I'm sticking with internal cards because of the flexibility. I have 3 computers with HD TV capture cards, and they can all independently watch/record without impacting each other or the home network. I don't know how well you can stream HD content over...
