Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Smart idea . . but ouch early adopting is expensive . . $20 at Frozen for 3 connectors PLUS buying one of the newegg options is more than I'm willing . .might break down and get one of the external powered hubs I've seen.
True . . extra front 3.0 ports are the goal . . if there are at least 2 of those on a card reader I might get it (as long as it uses internal connector and price isn't much). Would be fine if the card reader plugged into onboard 2.0 connector as long as I get new USB 3.0 with it. Open to a hub...
First 3 tests of forced sleep have all been perfect wake-ups . . LAN woke it up for backup this AM. Thanks!
PSU is OCZ ModXStreamPro 700W.
PS - Do you know if anybody is selling an internal USB 3.0 hub/combo card reader that plugs in the onboard 3.0 20 pin header?
Wondering if the following is common with those having restore from sleep problems?
If I power down board goes into hibernate, power on will bring normal resume into windows . .this is after the machine goes to sleep from non-use, and when I use keyboard or mouse to un-sleeep the screen does...
Am undecided . . . would like SSD caching but will wait to see how it goes out there . . . still haven't delved into why my P67 connected Vertex 2 took a big dump but it was great when it ran . . . using only the Hitachi HD the P67 is not running flawless . . .
Glad it worked out ok . . MicroCenter has completely replaced Fry's for most of my PC purchases. Service has been great and so have core component prices.
Fry's got a win for my new Samsung 51" plasma . . terrible service with simply awesome sale prices . . thank goodness DFW has at least 4...
The big picture is all about price . . I think NVidia has been more aggressive on pricing mid range cards this year and AMD is still playing catchup in that important segment.
As long as the 8800 is working, I'm just not buying a new card until a good 6850 falls below $100 . . . it's been...
Walked in with the motherboard, manual, and CD/DVD in static control plastic bag to return desk on 5/5 pm . . no letter or receipt or box . . they scanned the mb serial # and immediately gave me a credit.
The guy at the counter wanted me to lose my bundle discount for an upgrade model . ...
Had a somewhat similar problem when I didn't correctly seat a dimm after pulling it to place the CPU fan on after a B3 swap . . it was a deluxe and those q codes were handy. I thought it was posting but the q codes showed it was only partially posting. Try carefully seating 1 stick and give it...
Good question. OP needs to provide more info on plans for the board especially video.
For the other poster who wants 4.5 OC I'd do the Deluxe if it will be a continuous or heavily pushed. Otherwise the video and features might drive the choice.
Wanted to get an idea if people are using the optical audio connector on this board with or without problems.
Haven't had a response on the Asus forum to a friends's problem, so I'm wondering if there is just a very small universe of people using this setup. HDMI seems to work OK, though he...
