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.
Just had a play around with Fan Xpert 2 and basically I have now set it up to turn the fans on after 35C. Seeing as my comp usually stays below the 30C mark, they're pretty much always off :P
Thanks for the tip bloodredd, I'll be looking forward to seeing how those fans are received :)
Thanks for the responses bloodyredd and grambo! Just had a look at the Noctua's and they seem to be getting quite good reviews. I think the only off putting thing is the colour haha :P
I'm running on an ASUS P8Z77-V PRO. I just had a look at the bundled software from ASUS and there's one...
Hi guys,
After months of having my 550D chilling in the cupboard I finally went ahead and built my PC (first ever PC build too :P). Overall I'm quite happy with it except that it isn't as quiet as I expected (mainly the fans I think). Would you guys be able to suggest some good quiet fans for...
Haha it's there for those who wish to see it :P Though I agree, that magic white box could be anything! Do you know if the GTX 680 issue was the first NDA breaking incident? Or did they have some more troubles with Nvidia in the past?
This was posted by a user on Whirlpool forums: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hriCtUK1btM. Got taken off pretty fast so perhaps it contained legit content :S?
Mmmm...would they really hype up the 670 that much, though? I guess if it can give the 7970 a run for its money, it might be worth doing but in any case, I'd say it seems more appropriate for a flagship card.
Just got my case delivered half an hour back! So far so good, I don't believe the rattle issue is present. There don't seem to be any major damages as such, just a small scratch on the RHS of the case (not very visible though).
The only major issue I've been able to identify so far is that the...
Whoa! Nice analysis night_2004! Also, just as I was about to give up on the 550D, Amazon sent me an email updating the order today :D (an hour or so back in fact)! They now have stock of the 550D and apparently it will be shipped on Monday (for me).
Just a question to Redbeard. This case will...
Thanks for the detailed response QwaarJet :D. Quietness is definitely something I'm after so perhaps the ASUS might be the way to go. Do you know if these issues are still present with either of the cards from newer batches? The store I will be buying from got their stock very recently (as it...
