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.

Hi,
I am trying to go from 2x2GB to 4x2GB in my EVGA 790i FTW mobo. I had my sticks at 9-9-9-24 1T and 1066mhz @ 1.8v. When loading in the new sticks I bought (which are a different version, 2.4 vs 9.1) my system passes POST but crashes at windows log in.

Hey guys,
My gtx 275 is consistently artifacting in games I play (WoW, BF:BC2, SC2) and I am looking for a replacement. I am on a budget so I am hoping the new gtx 560Ti will be sufficient.
Do you guys think the 560 is an upgrade from a 275? I don't want to lose any performance. If it is...
