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.
It's time for another build and I wanted to get some second opinions or suggestions on hardware for my new build. I'm venturing into water-cooling more for a project than performance, but I would like this build to last me a good two years. So on to the questions!

I'm about to order this new build, after a quite a bit of researching and feedback I think this is what I am going to go with, but I want to make sure that everything should work together, fit together, and perform well with this setup before I finalize the order. Thanks!

seems like it would also work out well, I think, so I'm open to all suggestions.
Alright so I've switched the ram to the G.SKILL 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1000 (PC2 8000) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model F2-8000CL5D-4GBPQ - Retail
and I'm also getting the XIGMATEK HDT-S1283 120mm Rifle CPU Cooler - Retail for the cpu but now I'm having trouble deciding on...
Yeah the problem is I don't really know what I want in a mobo, I just play on 1280x1024 size and would like to play on as high settings as possible, I want the mobo to be able to OC the components well and besides that I only plan on ever using 1-2 HDD's, I want one with ability to hold up to...
This is my first time ordering the parts and putting the PC together myself, although I've helped out others do the same and know somewhat what I'm doing I hope. But that's why I came to you guys, anyways I'm building a solid gaming PC with abilities to handle anything I throw at it basically...
