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.
I have tried several SSDs from Intel and Western Digital, and they all screech. A high pitch whiny noise, which matches the amount of HDD activity going on.
I have seen people complaining about the noise on Crucial SSDs too.
Is there any SSD brand & model which is guaranteed not to...
Let's get back on point, people... Is the Vertex 3 120gb version worth buying??? Everyone knows the 240gb version is king of the hill, but what about the 120gb? How does it compare to other 120gb SSDs? I need to know whether I should buy the 120gb version or not, pretty quick! (I'm sure there...
I heard that the 1.35V do not work well when overvolted, all you have to do is search for 1.35V DDR3 on the web and there are some articles back in 2009 that talked about Gskill DDR3 1.35V not being any good.

But, where can we buy it? And when will it be manufactured by the big players?
Yeah I think I'm going to take a risk and go for separate smaller kits, so much cheaper that way.
I don't know about Newegg exchange but it still costs money to send the RAM back to them...
Yeah I checked with the manufacturer (GSkill), they said that if it's incompatible, that's tough luck for me and I can't return it to them or swap them, even if it's straight away. Pretty bad after-sales service if you ask me.
And there's no way I would pay newegg 15% restocking fee for...
I want 24gb total on my i7.
If we buy 3 sets of 8gb (4+4gb), and they aren't compatible in triple channel mode for whatever reason, can we return the memory and get a full refund? It's a lot cheaper than buying 2 sets of 12gb (4+4+4gb) - what a ripoff :( an even bigger ripoff is the 24gb set...
I don't think the maximums are true, it's just there to cover their ass. The motherboard will probably get a BIOS upgrade later when 8gb modules appear.
