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.
Hey guys,
My computer won't start. Right after POST (is that the right term?) I'm greeted by a black screen with an error message regarding a missing or corrupt hal.dll file.
So I go on my sister's computer (which I'm on right now) and search about the error on Google. I try several...

I'm not using any dividers, FSB:RAM are at 1:1. I'm trying to do everything I can to avoid...
Hey,
I'm a newb at overclocking (just started a few weeks ago), although I know the basics. I seem to have hit a dead end - 2.3GHz. Anything more than that like 2.35GHz and my PC will either reboot or get this error in Prime95:
Here are the CPU-Z screenies:
Don't ask me why the...
Hey all!
Just so you all know, this rig is mostly gonna be used for some hardcore gaming and is not going to be overclocked. So basically what I'm aiming for is a very high performing and stable/reliable system. Tell me what you think. :)

As long as we're all friends. :) That thing with the generic RAM... he probably for some reason just didn't see that it was made by Kingston. I don't know anyone that would call Kingston, one of the top RAM manufacturers, generic or no-name/brand.

Flaming based on a person's gender is really weak and lame. I agree with HardD99's setup. Try getting one of those new Celeron D's as I've heard they're really good overclockers.
About how far (MHz) can the OCZ PC-3200 Platinum Rev. 2 RAM go? Would it help if I added a fan or some form of cooling by the RAM sticks? Is it worth the extra cash?
Hi!
I was thinking about getting this rig around Christmas time or mid-January. I've been researching since the beginning of the summer and revised this list a lot. What do you think? Any comments or suggestions are welcome. :D
