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.
Hi guys.
Thought I would post something interesting here and see if anyone is interested in following it up.
I was opening my orochi the other day to solder in a USB battering charging module for when the USB cable is plugged in and when im using rechargable batteries. Im also intending to...
Hey guys.
According to all the teardowns and reviews of this monster of a card the VRMs get too hot and throttle back - but also, there is spare slots for 2 more phases on the card -> (bottom of this teardown)...
Kinda missing the point...
I want to know if it is feasable to cut off the second dvi port that sticks out, preventing the card from being single slot when water cooled.

Hey guys.
As well all know, the HD58x0 series graphics cards have an annoying double stacked DVI block that makes it impossible to use as a single slot card.
I was wondering if anyone has done/knows of a guide where we can safely chop the darn thing down to a single slot.
Or, if someone...
Can anyone give me some voltage advice for a q6600 with this board?
I am able to post at 3.9ghz, but no luck booting to server 2k8. I have a feeling I am tweaking the wrong voltages.

I have actually pre-ordered the ddr2 version of this board as well as pre-ordered 2x hd4870x2 gpus to go with in.
I have 1900 watts worth of heat dissipation in a water cooling look I am fitting into a lian li pcv350 as I type this, and by august 15th (which funnily enough is my birthday) the...
Archer: You almost sound insulted to hear our comments. Almost like a fanboy. Your attitude is typical of someone that just spent a lot of money on a purchase and is trying to justify it when a newer, better product has just been released.
Do you know what I do for a living? I build and manage...
You guys are also forgeting all the DRM that doesnt exist on server 2008. Remember the tests anandtech did on file copy operations? Where they renamed a new text file from document.txt to spiderman3.avi, and it took an hour to copy from one hdd to another? It was a 1kb file...
No one is sure...
The performance differences they are speaking of are in day to day operations. I read a writeup on it recently about why it does it, but basically a lot of file transferring operations are different, lots of hard disk access/caching is different and of course the networking stack is tweaked...
Tremeloes: That is pure art. I am in the process of an almost identical build, but i'll be using the 9800gx2 once koolance brings out a block for it.
One question, where did you get the black 8800gts?
