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.
Has anyone had any problems OC'ing their Sapphire X800GTO AGP after unlocking the 16 pipes? I've got the R430 core according to ATITool, but I can't get anything out of my card. I've got the card at 395/490 stock, but if I try to bring it up to 400/490 I get all types of artifacts. Also, if I...
Well, after much debate I bit the bullet and bought the G.Skill 2GB kit. Despite the slower timings I figured the higher speed will help balance things out. I really wanted to get my order in today. If it doesn't work out I suppose I can just RMA it for something else.
Thanks again for the...

Well, after reading as much more as I can find these are the two kits I'm stuck deciding between. The OCZ stuff looks great, tight...
I need to pick up some new RAM, 2GB kit, and the few that I'm looking at are currently in some rebates. However I'm not too sure which to pick. I'm currently running 2 sticks of 512MB Corsair XMS 2-3-3-7 default, but I'm OC'ing them to 166MHz and 2-3-2-6. I'm not terribly worried about OC'ing...
Well, in an attempt to hold me over a bit more I OC'd my PC a bit. I've got my P4 2.4GHz running at 2.99GHz, 166 FSB x 18 Multiplier (locked), memory timings set at 2-3-2-6, and I've OC'd my GF4 from default 300 core / 650 memory to 320 / 670. Nothing to spectacular, but it gets the job done I...
It seems that the 6800 GS is quite hard to find. Most places are out of stock and the places that do have it are priced quite high. Can anyone confirm if this comparison information is correct? If so then it looks to me that the GTO outperforms the GS even when the extra quad of pipelines is...
The more I look at the X800GTO the better it looks. I really a financial thing for me right now. I don't want to spend a bunch of money on an AGP card when I should really be going to a PCI-E system.
Well, I'm looking to upgrade my aging system. Financially I don't have the cash to upgrade as I'd like to PCI-e and such so I'm going to stick with what I have. I was looking for some suggestions on a new card. I have a few that I was looking at, but after doing some research I find that my head...
