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.
You are correct in all your questions. You can crossfire a reference with non and vice versa. You can crossfire 2gb with 1gb but if you do that then you'll only be able to use 1gb on both cards. With reference cards you can possibly unlock shaders on both of the cards and get a little bit of...
I went MSI and usually i choose Gigabyte. Using the OC Genie with the stock HSF my computer OC'd to 4.2ghz. I'm pretty impressed that I got a decent overclock and it stays cool. The board looks nice in real life and I have had 0 problems. Either or it seems you can't go wrong. Personally I would...
I usually go XFX for double lifetime warranty. However, this time around I went with MSI, i've had a few MSI cards before and never had any problems and I can still boast to that same record. I'd go XFX, MSI, ASUS, in any order.
Post. I've always liked Antec stuff. Still have 2 antec power supplies, and use their basic cases for simple builds. Good products from a solid company.
I'm in thesame boat TorxT3D. Except I sold my x58 stuff,well atleast most of it. I got a good deal for it, and came out even, so it was a good swap for me. Instead i'm just going to build a temporary system that will eventually become my htpc. It does put us (those who wanted to upgrade) in a...

I also have one of these, I got it from a friend who tried to mod it and did a terrible job, i've just been too lazy to try and do anything with it, probably never will. On a side note, does anyone remember which Lian Li top would work for this. It was one that had three fans and you could just...
Wow. That really sucks for early adopters. I really want to go sandybridge, but I can wait, especially if manufacturers are just going to use a half assed fix to repair the issue. Personally I don't want an extra card in my PC, especially if its jsut for sata ports. I know I know, don't use it...
Awesome. That's the only word I can think of to describe how fun this situation is.... Atleast this provides a good laugh for all of us wanting to upgrade. You have to have a sense of humour about something, why not just laugh at this. The reason I say this is becuase how many of us wanting to...
