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.
Since newegg is having a 15% off sale, I am thinking about upgrading ram.
I have 2x2gb Mushkin DDR2 800. Would it be worth it to get DDR21150 or something? My board supports it. I do overclock, but if I am not going to see a significant performance improvement then I dont want to do it...
So when decent quality power supplies blow they dont take other components with them? I am willing to risk it as long as theres no real danger to the rest of my parts?
It has three 12v rails each with 18 amps, so I doubt itd be weak in that department unless they degrade significantly?
As long as it wont damage my other components, I am not afraid to risk blowing it.
I have a 2.5 year old Antec true power trio 550w.
I recently upgraded my system and I am uncertain as to how far I can overclock without risking my power supply.
I am running a GTX 260, Q6600 G0, 2x2gb ddr2, 1 7200rpm hard drive, 1 74gb raptor, 4 80mm fans on my case. CPU has a xigmatek...
