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.
I picked up the R7 1700 this week from Fry's for 279.99 with their promo codes. Prices are definitely coming down and it's a matter of time before Intel has to respond to the shift in prices.
Fixed. Thanks for the extra eyes. You are correct, exactly as noted in our X60 review. - Kyle

I wouldn't recommend trying to OC that chip with the stock cooler. It really isn't that great and doesnt even really do a good job at cooling that chip at stock speeds.
That is actually very close to what I am looking to do right now and I completely understand what you mean about the pump. I've seen a lot of 540 builds where the person hides the reservoir and pump in the back and just didn't like the way it looked with just the rads and tubing in the front.
So I'm planning out my first water cooling loop for my system that I just recently migrated into a Corsair Air 540 from my Corsair 700D. I have a pretty good idea of how the layout of everything will be but I am more than open to critiques and suggestions. As it stands right now the only thing...
The system was slow from the moment I hit the power button to turn it on. Checked everything, had it set to do a quick check and full check when testing.
On the up side it looks like I have fixed the problem. Went to Fry's today and picked up a new TX750M PSU, pulled the old one out and...
It affects the motherboard while it is trying to POST and boot into OS. My normal boot time from power on to Windows or Linux being logged in was about one minute, and now it takes both upwards of 5 minutes. As for malware already triple checked that with 2 scans while Windows was loaded and a...
PSU is not visible without completely removing it from my case as of right now. My Window's partition is running on a Seagate Hybrid SSD/HDD drive and my Linux partition is running on a standard WD Black 7200rpm HDD. Ram is running at the stock 1600mhz setting up from the motherboard imposed...
Oh also forgot to mention that I tested all my hard drives and the boot times were unaffected whether I had my Windows drive plugged in or my Linux drive.
So the topic says it all. I've been building and troubleshooting computers going on 13 years now and have never ran across an issue like this.
So As it stands right now when I try to boot up it easily takes 5 minutes where before it was easily less than a minute. When I try to play any FPS...
