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.
Ok after a bunch of soul searching I think I'm going to go with the Bitfenix recon:

Unless anyone has any other comments. I like that in...

I really like this one (again mostly for the gimmicky details) It looks sharp and while I'll never need to I like that novelty of adjusting my fans using my phone. But like I said. If a standard slider control or knobs are solid...
Sorry about the long time without a reply. I don't know about the wattage. Thats part of the issue I'm having. Most of the cheaper ones I like end up being 10w. Is that going to be enough to power 5 or 6 fans? (thats what most of these control) I looked at a couple of touch screen ones too. I...
So I have a CM Storm Scout 2 case that supports up to 9 fans. I don't know how many of those I'll actually have (probably closer to 5 is my guess in the end) but I was looking for a good reliable, cheap fan controller. Something I shouldn't have to replace. I like flashy but it isn't necessary...
I am asking for a friend. I just recently got an HD 7950 :P But he needs the most bang for his buck under $100. I was thinking the HD 6670 looked pretty good but I was hoping for some input before I tell him what to get.
Yeah. I know yours is the old version but I'm sure the handle is of similar build quality (or at least I hope) and I did hear about the stock fans on the original being a pain to swap out.
I can let you know how it is when I get it if you're interested. Though I won't have the computer...
Yeah Sleeping Dogs has me intrigued but I'll pick it up down the road. Saving the money is more important right now sadly. :P
But I went with the HD 7950. I'm thinking that'll do me well for Future proofing. Maybe they'll get even cheaper in a year and ill crossfire them. But for now I think...
Well I jumped on the Scout 2. I like the styling of the original better (and the fact that it comes with more fans) but I think fitting all my stuff without breaking out the dremel is best. Thanks for the heads up. How is that handle by the way?
I was thinking to get a CM storm scout for my new computer because I take my tower places often but it looks like the case can't support longer video cards with the drive bays being in the way. Is it practical/possible to remove a bay or two?
Thanks guys.

I recently had a thread asking about a 7870 vs a gtx 660. I've been swayed to go with the Radeon but I have a new question. I found this 7950:

I was going to get the gigabyte brand 7870 so this only cost a little bit more after...
I apologize if this is a stupid question. I'm still a newbie. But is it ok/advisable to boot from a 1.5tb drive? For my new computer it would be my only drive for now. I will have a partition for Windows but I hear about issues with higher capacity drives.
Thanks in advance everyone.
