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.

Carbide ice nanotube pads
I just made the switch to Linux, and so cine-bench is now off the table. Open to any suggestions re an alternative tool to monitor the pads effectiveness over time.- Folly

Carbide ice nanotube pads
I've always used paste and never had a problem. The CPU I took out had paste that was nearly 4 years old, and while it was showing slight signs of drying out there'd been no noticeable impact on temps or performance at all. I bought some new paste with the intention of using it, but thought I'd...- Folly

Carbide ice nanotube pads
Recently upgraded my AM4 system with the anniversary 5800X3D, and was interested to see how the Carbide pad would perform. It's been in situ for a few weeks now, and my rig has been through perhaps a hundred or so high temp cycles. Just ran Cinebench R23 for 10 minutes on multi core and the CPU...- Folly

Anyone still holding on the their Silverstone FT02? How's the fight moving into the future?
Just upgraded my AM4 build with a 5800X3D and 9070 XT. This great old case still keep everything cool and runs whisper quiet during most tasks. Only heavy gaming or benchmarking gets the 180 fans roaring. What the hell happened to the dedicated FT02 thread?- Folly

Intel ARC A750 & A770 Reviews
Arc A770. I'm into 8-9 months now running dual screens - ultrawide 1440 @100hz plus 1080 @60hz. Used daily, gaming, web browsing, light video editing and general usage. For about the past 6 months i've had zero issues, nada, everything is great. Admittedly I don't play Starfield and I know...- Folly

Low profile 540 mm fan Bracket for Silverstone FT02 and RV02
I tried that, the efficiency of the fans is severely impacted when in contact with the bottom of the case, and that's without the filter. They need to run faster to maintain the same temps and the noise is much worse. It's like the stack effect cooling these fans were built for just doesn't...- Folly

Arc at 1 year - GN
It's now been a couple of months since I experienced any issues related to performance or general functionality, every game and application I use works fine, I'm extremely happy and it has proved to be a good upgrade from the 1660S for my particular needs. The only problem I have is the Acer...- Folly

Mouses for life?
Thanks for all the replies and suggestions. I decided on two in the end. Model O - Because cheap and seems like it might be an excellent mouse primarily for gaming Microsoft Comfort Optical Mouse 1000 - Because I found a boxed 2008 example for a great price, and it looks much more like the no...- Folly

Mouses for life?
The mouses I've been using for during the past few years were all great, priced around £50-£85, so not top of the range but certainly not cheap and clearly built to be excellent for a very specific and limited period of time, usually a year or two. This time I'd really like to buy a mouse that...- Folly

5700X "Quick n Easy" OC Assistance
Thank you for the reply! Just MSI Game boost OC, I thought about under volting but have no experience with doing that. To be honest I'm just happy with the performance as it is, and like you say as long as the temps remain where they are there's little to fear, so why tinker further? Credit...- Folly

5700X "Quick n Easy" OC Assistance
Hope you don't mind me adding to the thread, rather than start a new one I have some related 5700X OC questions. Currently I'm just running the standard MSI Game boost OC settings on mine, I notice that wattage to the package often exceeds 120w and the Core 100w+. I get good clocks (4.9) and...- Folly

Curious about Intel's driver updates
They have targeted specific games (popular and newer titles) as well as trying to backfill compatibility issues with older API's like DX11 and earlier. It's absolutely down to them being new to the scene, where Nvidia and AMD can base new drivers on foundations decades in the making, Intel is...- Folly
