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.
Looks like the CPU is getting upgraded then!
Here's a good question though, on ebay I see used Toledo X2 939's selling for 130-170 bucks! If I remember correctly that's more than I paid for mine... anyone explain why the price is so high? Seems like selling it is the obvious choice... do...
Thanks for all the replies guys. I should have said in my original post it's not just TF2 that doesn't run how I want it to, it's all games. MW2 only runs on low or medium, Crysis the same, etc. I want to run current games with good settings smoothly. Seems like I'll probably have to upgrade...
Ahh okay, thanks for the reply. So it seems by your reply that you think the 9800GT 512MB should be okay running at 1680x1050 and isn't the biggest problem? And that if I got those new things I could keep this video card?
Well, I have a MSI Neo4-SLI mobo with 2GB of ram and an x2 4800+ running stock. I have a PNY 9800GT 512MB I picked up for around 100 from best buy a month ago or so.
I game at 1680x1050.
I can not run TF2 on low-medium settings over 40FPS in larger fights with my current setup. When nobody...
I have here a slightly used (tested, guaranteed to not be DOA) 3200+ Winchester for 939. Comes with the heatsink and complimentary thermal grease.

how much of a bandwidth hit would i notice if i hooked the cd drive (which i probably wouldn't be using much at all) and the harddrive (which would be my one and only hd) up using the same cable?? the computer will be for audio work, recording/mixing/arranging
Well, I'm assembling an old via computer with a 2700+ chip. I have a 40gb IDE harddrive I want to connect. Right now, the CD Drive is connected to the mobo with an IDE cable. This same IDE cable also has another female connector on it that would fit into my harddrive's IDE port.
My question is...
I bought a 4800+ X2 recently for 270.
Someone told me that this was idiotic and there was absolutely no reason to get this as opposed to an Opty, because I could get the Opty to at least 2.8...
I'm kinda bummed out that I just spend almost 300 dollars for a chip that is overshadowed by a...
