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.
Hello All!
I've recently purchased a new computer, and it arrived Friday. For the past two days, I've been setting it up, arranging cables, etc, and when it came time to turn it on, nothing showed on the screen, I can't hear my HDD loading (nor does the HDD activity LED show anything), and my...
Thanks. I have a birthday coming up, so I'll see about a 7800GTX. ;) The 6600GT is more or less a temporary card until I can go all out.
Also, which programs would you recommend to test stability, burn-in the memory / processor, and simply benchmark the computer? And what order would you...
That's exactly what I've been wanting to hear! I'm not planning on going down the SLi road, and I am not someone who needs full graphical capability at 1600x1200, I like a nice and simple 1024x768 for my games. I thought the 6600GT suited best for what I will be doing.
I just bought a new PC, I hope I made the right choices. I'm a gamer, and a novice overclocker. Comments?

I'll keep it simply, which one should I get from this list?

Would I be able to just get the DFI SLi-DR, flash the BIOS to the latest version, set the BIOS automatically (defaults), and be on my way? I don't plan on overclocking...
Do motherboards come with cables for HDD? I am purchasing an OEM HDD, but I'm unsure if motherboards, or any other component comes with the cables for hookup.
How would you consider putting these two together? I've yet to see someone with an ASUS motherboard and have some OCZ memory.
Also, is a DFI LANPARTY nF4 SLI-DR too complicated for a first build?
