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.
Are there a few 50"+ LCD/Plasma TV 2012 models that have low input lag and 4:4:4 for console gaming? I already have a monitor for PC gaming. Any suggestions are appreciated.
Would 3 GT AP-15's get the job done if you were to replace the stock fans? Two front intake and one rear. This is for a stock computer build, BTW.
Maybe I should add another one for bottom as well?
I don't mind a little noise as long it provides ample airflow.
Thank you for taking your time coming up with these suggestions, Danny. It's great to have someone like yourself helping us with building new computers.
I would like to note that after building this new computer, I probably won't be upgrading/buying a new computer in the next couple years or...
1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing?
90% gaming (Dota 2, Black Ops 2, Diablo 3) and 10% multimedia (movies, streaming).
2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included?
$4000 and yes, tax and shipping included.
3) Which country do you live in? If...
I've been so out of the loop on computer parts and it's been a few years since I built my computer and it's starting to show old age and what not. I'm currently using 8800 GTX and it runs CoD4 smoothly @ 1600x1050 resolution with some settings maxed out.
Now, I'm looking for a single video...
Hey guys, just wondering if this is the proper way to apply thermal paste on your quad core processor?
The red line in the photo depicts the amount and size of Arctic Silver 5 to use.
Would you go for B3 stepping if you have no intention on overclocking?
Do you think the less heat and less consumption in watts on G0 stepping processors is worth the small-trade off?
Hey guys,
My previous case was a POS case with a 120mm fan. Now, I have an Antec P182 with 4 Yate Loons fans installed and 1 Scythe fan for heatsink.
I was wondering if I should connect the (4) Yate Loon fans 3 pin molex/connector to the motherboard or 4 pin molex/connector to the PSU...
The light blue arrows indicate the direction of where the fan is blowing.
So, what'd ya think? Is the setup wrong? Suggestions or advices for proper fan cooling are greatly appreciated.
For starters, I should probably d/l the drivers from nvidia website... but I know there are other reputed websites out there that provides tweaked/optimized drivers that'll help boost performance.
What's the the latest, recommended drivers out there that I should go ahead and d/l for my...
Thanks for the recommendations.
I picked up 2GB Crucial Ballistix DDR2 800.
I was going to pick up G.Skill DDR2 800 HZ but they no longer have the D9 micron chips. Just read that on Anandtech forums.
