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.

After 7 years, its time for a new rig...opinions wanted please
Forgot to mention this earlier - you won't be able to use both the WiFi card and card as the Z87E-ITX has a single PCI-e slot...- fatguy

I have the same chip/board combo on a Fedora-based workstation at home, it works well. I had some troubles booting with UEFI at first, but that has resolved itself. I don't play games on my workstation but need to power 2 1440p monitors. I found an open-box GTX 630 w/2GB vmem and it works...- fatguy

NCASE M1: a crowdfunded Mini-ITX case (updates in first post)
I have the StarUSA adapter. It gets power but fails to accept/eject discs. The cable could be the problem, but I would be surprised. I have the ASRock Z87E-ITX, read that the C12 would work, but haven't seen it in a semi-passive setup...- fatguy

NCASE M1: a crowdfunded Mini-ITX case (updates in first post)
Got my parts in and installed F20. The slim load DVD from Digistor was defective, the load mechanics don't work. I replaced the fan on the ST455F and noise is fine, except for the stock intel cooler I have on the i5. Any suggestions for an air cooler I can slap on and use semi-passively...- fatguy

Doorbell rang as I was reading your response - serial # 301 arrived in perfect condition. Great quality, still can't get over how small it is. You guys really did a great job, proud to be part of it!- fatguy

Nice, I'm also in NJ on #26 - hopefully I'll see mine today. Curious, where in NJ are you? I'm about 30 minutes west of NYC.- fatguy

Microcenter BF ad out I7 4770K $249
I was at the MC in paterson (NJ) on wednesday - a couple of salespeople were putting arrows on the floor with tape for the checkout line ahead of BF. I swear to god they had the line wrapping halfway around the store. I don't know about the rest of you, but saving a few bucks isn't worth an...- fatguy

ESXi Build - help me with the spec
Hard to say if 16GB will be memory w/o knowing what you'll be running. For example, I run a ZFS vm and had to upgrade to 32GB to have enough memory left for my other vms...- fatguy

Feels good to me - U3014 for $999
There are no perfect monitors out there - trust me I've searched. I've been trying to find a good 27" 2560x1440 but every one suffers from something or the other. I'm looking at a PB278Q now that's great except at off-angles it looks like a TN panel (contrast glare, etc). I figure I'm willing...- fatguy

Today only!! Corsair 500r White Case @ Newegg $69.99 (after rebate)
I've had dozens of cases over the years, and I can't imagine ever replacing my 500R. Throw a H100 up top and a few side fans on your GPUs and this case cannot be beat. It's an absolute steal at this price. I noticed the pictures don't show the spot up top that was made to house the...- fatguy

Advice for 2 side portrait monitors with a XHD3000 in the center?
I went through the same search for my 305t+. I searched for monitors with similar dimensions, reasonably close pixel sizes, etc. I ended up finding some used 204Ts and they worked perfectly. I recommend looking at older 4:3 1600x1200 monitors and try to find something that works...
