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.
Manual says DRAM error, but I went back in a left all the memory settings to auto and it still did it.
I followed the directions, except I changed System Memory Multiplier to the default instead of 2.00 and I left the DRAM timing selectable at auto and I did not change the DDR2 OverVoltage...
I really hate external HDDs really, they're too fragile and I got dogs who can hurt things. The only thing I am worried about is hardware failure, I'm not worried about the other things because I will be adding to this system later on. I just need a way to store the same data on 2 drives.

I got 2 hard drives, one 160GB and one 500GB and I need a backup solution for files only. I want my operating system on a separate 375GB partition and I want a 125GB redundant (like on 2 hard drives) partition to keep just my files (no programs). Is this possible to do? What is the best way of...
I got a bit of a problem with this guide, maybe somebody here can help. I have followed the instructions to a T, but after putting in the baseline values the system restarts and sounds a REALLY annoying constant beep. I have redone the values 3 times now with the same results. What am I doing...
It's not set in stone about the size of the monitor, and the bigger the better. 24" might be better at that time, who knows, depends on what deals are going on. So if I had a 24" monitor, go with that.
PS It's hard to plan for upgrades in a long term. :)
Yes I know. I am going to upgrade my mother board, CPU, and add a video card in about a year, so I'd like to buy one PSU now and not buy another in a year.
EDIT: right now I'm on a 19", but that will be upgraded to a 22" at x-mas so I can run a dual monitor set up.
Great recommendations, but my budget can really only stretch to $260 which has to include the video card and the PSU. The OCZ I linked above is $59.99 after rebates which is doable. So as long as I can run a mild OC on my CPU and 1 HD4850 1Gig card AND in the future the PSU can support a non-OC...
