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.
Someone in my area is selling a computer with the following components used. What do you think a fair price to pay for it would be? (They have it listed at 900$)
CPU: Intel i5-2500k
Cooler: Noctua NH-D14
Motherboard: MSI p67a-c43
RAM: Corsair XMS3 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1333
SSD: Intel 520 Series...
Hello, I have recently installed a SSD with my OS. My HHD is also connected, and contains my whole old computer (OS, files, etc). My question is about integration, do I format the HDD, does it act like a USB flash drive from now on, or do I make my own folders on it for programs?
Hello, I know next to nothing about how SSDs work in conjunction with HDDs. I currently have a 2TB HDD, with all my files on it, and a SDD waiting to be installed. From what I can see, I should put important programs and my OS on the SSD, but how do I make that switch, keep my files, remove the...
Hello, I have a dell p992 CRT and a standard lcd monitor. When I boot into a game like CS:S or Team Fortress 2, I am able to keep the CRT monitor at 120Hz if it is the only one plugged in. If I have both the LCD and the CRT, it defaults to 85Hz. It is not really too much of an issue, but I was...
Hello, I am overclocking my I5 and have a few questions.
What would be ideal idle/load temps?
What would happen if my core volt was too low, and what would identify that?
Does the clock rate, or the core voltage dictate the degradation of the cpu?
What would indicate I can get a >4.5ghz...
I know the 1155 and 1156 have the same screw holes, but the noctua cooler I got was for the 2011 socket. I don't know where to get a 1155/56 bracket, as the cooler did not come with one.
Hello, I accidentally ordered the noctua nh-d14 2011 se, instead of the 1155 socket version. Should I return the whole thing, and get the right one, or is there a certain part that I could buy that would make it fit?
Hello internet. I am OC'ing my i5 2500k, as well as buying a GTX 670. What PSU would you recommend for this operation?
On second thought, this would be better suited in power supplies. Mods to the rescue?
Heller, I was thinking about buying a new Nvidia 6xx series card soon. I have had my sights set on the 670, it being a delicious card and all, but I have a question. Would It be justifiable to wait for a price drop on the 6xx series, or wait for the release of the next cards in the line...

Whoops, didn't see your post.
Hello, I also used to have slightly the same problem. I'm going to go straight out and say that I was not able to get it fixed. I had desktop running win7 along with the old imerator and the lycosa (and a pile of windows updates needed to be installed). The imperator never let my down, but the...
