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.
Must have been said earlier in this titanic thread but .... nVidia drivers for sli on amd seemed to be borked in this old article.
A single card or crossfire would have looked different.

Great review, thanks!
So the 7790 rundown:
1.) Needs 2gb ram .... 8gb consoles inbound
2.) Too expensive
3.) Powercolor are half-arsed.
4.) Severely bandwidth limited?? Overclocking performance improvement closely tracks the memory oc .... a lot of performance from a 128bit memory...

Actually in this case I really think you might have to. I would point the finger at either the board or the board's BIOS before the chip. They can go higher with less effort AFAIK,

I'd imagine those drivers dropped too late for the review. Would have been nice to see what they did for BF3 performance but otherwise can't fault the review. Excellent as always.
You're not wrong! I wouldn't mind finding a better mobo than my P5-B (socket 775), just for a bit of a laugh really and play with some really high FSB oc'ing, something I'd spend up to £50 on but no more. Absolute max. Saw a P5-K the other day go for £70!! ..... I mean c'mon who's spending...
You're having a laugh aren't you!?
..... Those are way too crusty to be showing up on any high profile site surely?
Anywhoo if you're not looking at the gaming and video playback performance, ..... you're kinda missing the point of the product.

Hey man,
Kudos for the testing and the info, nice work.
I would say though that having just a single fan saves you only, ....I dunno, 4 watts? That's a very small hill of beans.
Also, in short you say you cannot reproduce the same issues that the [H] team had, but what happens if you...
