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 just bought my components and should have thought more about whether my power supply is sufficient for this setup:
AMD Phenom II X4 940 3.0GHZ cpu
Gigabyte MA770-UD3 motherboard
8GB (4x2GB) DDR 800 Corsair RAM
MSI Radeon HD 4870 1GB video card
possible sound card and tv-tuner...
I partitioned my 160GB SATA Maxtor hdd into 10GB and 150GB, more or less. I have Windows XP Pro SP2, along with most of my programs, on the smaller c: partition. The d: partition has all my music, documents, and files.
I don't think I was doing anything out of the ordinary, but now when I...

Well, they're not really windows, just tabs within the main opera or avant browser. Like right now, I have 6 windows open: ABC Bittorrent, winamp, opera browser with 3 tabs open, avant browser with 52 tabs open, aim, and an aim convo.
I'm building my first computer, and I need to decide between these two systems:
Case: Antec SLK3700AMB Solution Series 350W
MB: MSI K8T Neo-FIS2R K8T800 SND/GBL/SATA-R/FW
CPU: AMD ATHLON 64 3000+ RETAIL BOX
Mem: 2x512 MB DDR PC3200 400MHZ
DVD-R: MSI DR8-A DVD +-R/RW 8X RETAIL
HDD: WD...
I've looked at the SFF PCs, but I really like the idea of being able to drive down to where I bought everything and return it or have them test it. I can't believe that space is SUCH a premium that it really makes a difference between SFF and a small tower. I have about $1500 for the computer...
I'm going to use this system for 2-4 years, so unless I go with socket 939, it doesn't seem like I will be able to upgrade the cpu (and even then it is questionable).
Why definitely Athlon? The thing is that I don't think I really NEED an A64. How long do people typically keep their mobos? Also, I don't want to have to buy win xp pro twice, so if I got the 64, would I have to re-buy the 64 bit version? Also, tcwo doesn't have that mobo, they only have...
Ok, this is my first build, and it's for college. I'd like your inputs on my choices, and which system to go with. I'm only a casual gamer, but I would like to be able to play Half Life 2 with decent (doesn't need to be spectacular) graphics. Mostly I browse forums, opening massive amounts of...
