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.
Ha, I was actually expecting that link to explain it.
No I didn't use that, had never heard of it. But I'm fine with what I paid. But I am going to stop looking at the prices so if it all goes down a whole bunch I won't even know.
Sooo, I just got an XFX 5870 from Tiger Direct for $409 shipped, only $10 more than I had pre-ordered for at Amazon, and I canceled my Amazon order, so there's another 5870 for one of you.
They are already at $419 at tiger but it's no tax (for most places) and it's free shipping. $429 for the...
So I just starting wondering.... How much better do you think the 5870 is than the 5850 XXX edition? I'm already committed to paying 400 for a 5870, so I wouldn't feel TOO bad paying 380 for a card almost just as good... if it is. I'm not gonna go crazy with resolutions but I would like to...
I'm just gonna throw this out there..... Does anybody think there is any chance in hell that we could actually get them before those dates? and they just say that to cover their asses?
Or are we totally screwed...
Also, someone mentioned the amount of pre-orders from amazon, how do you find...
I got my approval email today for a 5870, approved it, ordered nov 16 and it says "Not Yet Shipped:
1 item - delivery estimate: January 19, 2010 - February 5, 2010" , and the shipment estimate is jan 11 - 25 or something like that.
I'm in a pickle, here I am with no card and a big empty...
I've been looking at so many websites I can't even remember, but I was looking for 5870s so it can't be too hard to find them if they still have em.
But I bet that it's right on that tons of people pre-ordered from amazon, so everything they get instock goes to them right away. I just hope...
Ok... has anyone gotten their 5870 from amazon yet? Newegg has XFX 5870 in stock right now, last night amazon had the sapphire 5870, today tigerdirect has the sapphire 5870, I would buy it from newegg right this second but I'm a cheap bastard and don't want to spend $470 when i might get my...
I pre-ordered an XFX 5870 from amazon Nov 16 and it said right away that it won't arrive till after DEC 25. It was 399 when I ordered it and now it's 420 or something. Haven't gotten any emails asking anything so I can only hope I actually get it for that price.
I also pre-ordered it from...
