• 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.

    Thanks to DooKey and magoo. I guess I'll stick with the G.Skill.

    Newegg Customer Service

    You are right about that. However, I don't like having my credit card info sent over the net, even though it will still go into the same Newegg DB either way. My hope was to find alternatives to Newegg.

    Newegg Customer Service

    I don't like putting my credit card online. Also, I like to talk to a vendor, so that if the components don't come (or the wrong ones), I want to be able to make a call. An email is too easily ignored. Just look at the posts in this thread about Neweggs RMAs gone wrong.

    Newegg Customer Service

    This thread is full of many serious complaints against Newegg by longtime customers. That, together with the fact that I cannot order by phone, was why I am looking elsewhere.

    Newegg Customer Service

    Thanks for the replies from the Neweggers. I realized when I saw them that I perhaps should have posted in another thread--just didn't know which one to try. I don't want to put my credit card on line for over 2K of purchases and have no way of contacting the vendor other than email and hope...

    Asus Sabertooth X79 compatible components

    I went into a computer shop today with a list of components researched for a new system. The system builder raised several issues and suggested I join this Forum to help get answers before he starts to build the system. My key components: Case: COOLER MASTER HAF 932 Advanced Blue Edition...
