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.
Maybe you could see this as a reason to get some new logitech freepulse wireless headphones like these:

I have them and use them for working out as well. They have a volume control built-in. I would try...
Thanks a ton. I looked at those cases, and they both seem to do the job pretty well. I might look at some more mid-tower sizes just for comparison, because if I am going to build this it might as well be upgrade-friendly later on.
Any advice would help here, I have looked all over the net with mixed results. I get so many conflicting claims that I am now looking here for some clear answers. Thanks!
Hey everybody, I don't post on here much at all, but I figured this was worth a shot.
I am currently in the process of spec-ing out a fragbox sized computer for my girlfriend. I know all the parts that I will put in it, except for a power supply and case. I have been trying to track down a...
I am thinking about buying an APEVIA X-Superalien ATXA6SW-BL/500 from Newegg. I am not sure if a Tuniq Tower cpu heatsink will fit inside it. I am concerned that the Tuniq tower will hit the inside of the handle for the side door. Does anybody have this type of setup or know how comfortable...
I used nTune from nVidia's web site. It did everything for me in about 20 minutes and nearly doubled my 3dmark score. All you have to do is save the new settings and make it a rule that they be loaded on windows startup. Really easy, and really reliable.
I play Flight Sim X Deluxe with an 8800GTX, C2D e6700, 2GB XMS2 memory, and an eVGA 680i sli motherboard. I have had no problems running that game at max everything. The only thing I have done is run nVidia's nTune utility that overclocks some stuff.
::edit::
I play at 1280x1024 on an...
I bought the computer, so I don't think I can take a look at the cpu without messing up the warranty. I could take the water block off of it, but I really don't want to mess with it. What is the lowest overclock someone got with a bad week?
Okay, so I just ran nVidia's stock tuner for the...
My chips week? I don't know what you mean.
Yes, the 6700 3dmark score was with the 8800gtx. I want to bump up the stats, but I haven't heard any good memory and bandwidth clocks for it. I searched for a bit here, but the forums are so huge.
I probably should've asked this before I got setup recommendations, but is 3-3.2GHz a good, stable clock for an e6700? I am not sure what an e6700 is capable of, just the e6300. What should I shoot for in terms of higher speeds and stability?
Currently, I am getting a score of about 6700...
Thanks! I will try that tomorrow.
I was thinking...there should be a thread with lists of random mobo, cpu, and memory combinations that people have, and some basic OCing settings. Maybe someone with a certain setup can then just browse the list and find someone with the same combo, then...
It is water cooled, so no worries there.
I just tried to change the settings to what Arcygenical said, but my computer wouldn't make it to the bios screen. It just locked up right after I turned it on.
