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.
I've been thiking alot about all the people waiting for updates, and I feel bad because its been a long time.
I took a long break from modding because of a few personal issues, to clear my mind. I should be back into it soon, I promise.
I dunno what I'll do with the logo, thats another thing to do, sigh. lol
Little update of sorts, I've got some new stuff.
Alot (I don't recall how long the spools are) of black and red wire (I have another of yellow from a few months back), some 6-pin (PCI-E graphics style) plugs (which...
I can't be bothered with pics right now, so I'll just talk some ideas.
I'm in the process of designing a cover for the mobo, which will be attached to the removable tray (which is still, and will still be, removable). It'll cover most of the components, including the expansion cards. The main...
Thanks alot for all the comments :)
I really wasn't happy with the cooling delivered by the stock chipset heatsink/heatpipe assembly, so I replaced it.
My original plan was to remove the stock cooler, cut the heatpipe off the MOSFET heatsink so that I could still use it, and put some...
Update #39:
I'm following this schematic:

Here's how far I am with it since starting thisarvo:
Two more ribbon cables and it'll be finished, then I just have to mount it.
Seeing the CCFL inverter upside down like...
Update #38:
I came home to a very nice surprise sitting on my desk :)
Excellently packaged :)
Inside was my new 320x240 CCFL backlit graphic LCD :D
For reference the PCB is ~110x170mm, big enough to fill 3x 5.25" bays :)
I'm going to have to modify the bay covers that...
Update #36:
I couldn't sleep last night. My dog woke me up at 7:30 thismorning, crying, because my dad had gone out. :tired:
I got to work around 8:30 or so, here's what I did.
An overall shot.
I added the 'top' section to the rad mount to act as more of a duct, and cut a hole...
Update #33:
So its been nearly 2 months since I updated, way too long IMO. Everything's sorted out now, so back to modding. Sorry :/
I've done a big upgrade, and as a result some of the plans I had now have to change. Not a problem really.
New components arrived last week, as well as a...
Update #30:
For anyone who missed it, here is the logo which I cut out of the floor.
I didn't want to just throw it out, so I've decided to use it somewhere else in the case. Before I use it I need to cut out the logo itself. I decided on giving the current logo a 3mm border, here it...
Update #27:
I haven't updated in ages because I've been too lazy to do any decent work, but here's some progress from the last few weeks and alot from today.
I got some stuff from PCCG, the most important of which being a BIX to replace my leaking BIP. Here's the loop that has been...
Update #24:
Sorry about not updating last week. I did do some work but I'm going to save it for a while before I update.
Over the next week or two I'll have alot of new gear (some of it is already here) to play with which will no doubt keep me busy. All of the work involving said gear will...
Update #20:
OK I've had a few questions about the powerpole, and instead of addressing them all individually I'll just explain them all in as an update.
The powerpole is constructed of two (well, three if you want to be technical) pieces of aluminium; a U shaped piece and a L shaped...
Update #14:
I got a package today! I like packages :P
Open the package and what do you get?
Another package! Open the package and what do you get?
Bubble wrap!
Open the bubble wrap and what do you get?
A 20 pin ATX extension, black sleeving, a Zalman VF700-Cu...
Update #8:
I made some progress today in regards to the floppy drive bays.
The day started with a sheet of aluminium which was marked and cut with tin snips. I was left with this piece for the new false floor:
As well as this piece:
Not the perspex and fan... hrmmm... I...
Hey guys :) I've been meaning to post this log over here for ages, but only just got around to registering. The first post in this log was dated around the 16th of February 2006. I've included all the 'updates' to date (#1-39).
