• 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.

    POLL: p8p67 deluxe rev b3 more or less or same for stability?

    So...are you trying to feel better about the fact that you second-guessed yourself and got snubbed with a brand new processor? Otherwise, I'm not sure I see the purpose of this post. I did a direct swap with my old board, all other components being equal, and have exactly the same settings...

    ASUS RMA is up

    I signed up for an exchange within the first few days of the online registry. Then, a few days ago, I was notified of the RMA process beginning; that night they had server issues. I didn't get to submit my CC auth form until early the next day. Since then, I've received zero contact from ASUS...

    1305 Bricking BIOS pool

    Just goes to show that just because you're older or have been around forums, doesn't make you an authority. Motherboards have changed drastically in the last 10 years. The very reason that ASUS motherboards have a 32MB BIOS/UEFI chip is exactly for this contingency. That's why they have working...

    An Open Letter From ASUS

    https://vip.asus.com/login.aspx And yes, if you have registered your product, it does make it a bit easier for a direct RMA. However, it seems that while ASUS is covering all of their customers directly, they may also be working with retailers to provide other avenues for return/exchange...

    Amazon.com rep. response

    This is the response I received from Amazon.com asking if they would extend my return window past the 30-day limit until they had new motherboards available: Hello, I apologize for any trouble. I understand that the ASUS Motherboard chipset has been recalled by the the manufacturer and...

    P8P67 4.7GHz+ : What Memory Works at 1600 ?

    This is a rather arbitrary goal, and a bit unreasonable. Are you using your computer to run floating point math and/or cryptography 24/7? If so, then you have a point. If not, then I think running two hours at full throttle with a massive OC that really pushed the limits of the chip is quite...

    P8P67 : Explain CPU voltage offset ?

    Although the voltage stays the same with a manual setting, I've found that the actual current applied to each core drops during idle. I'm not sure how that is working or if it's even being reported properly, but ultimately current is what heats up/damages your processor, not voltage. Run a...
