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.
Thank you for all the advice. I was actually worrying about Raid 0 in my mind immediately (since it splits the files up). But my only modivation was a speed that I have never experienced first hand. I guess it won't help that much, but I do plan on doing some video editing and sound editing as...
I have a 17" sony sdm-x73 @ 1280 by 1024 pixels. Is this considered high?
I also read the review at ZZF and it says that memory was made pretty much for p5wd2, but at newegg, it says the ddr2 standards are 800. This is DDR 1000. Won't the extra be worthless or does that have nothing to do...
I've gotta know if PC2 6400 memory is too much or something. It seems the CAS timings are slower and will the added bandwidth outweigh this? I don't mind buying it, but I just don't want to pay extra for something that is not as good.
i have tried winamp and windows media player. I don't know, but it seems like a universal problems. I switched speakers as well to a 2.1 instead of just a crappy 2.0
I've had this problem for a year or 2 and it is time I addressed it. When I play songs (mp3's) and such, the computer will occasionally skip during the song and it seems to happen whenever I utilize CPU ussage. I was using onboard sound on my P4P800 and then I got a Santa Cruz Turtle Beach to...
Another question, since I don't want to fork out the extra $200 for a 7800 GTX, what would a good 6800GT be (or other video card)?
I'm not seeing much of a difference between these 2 cards...

I would love to spend an extra couple of hundred, but my resources are limited. I plan on using a Stafford loan to pay for these upgrades (Which is ~1,200) or so. College money well spent. But, I'm going to be in debt the rest of my life so I might as well enjoy it while I can. So I am stuck...
I'm sorry, I'm not familiar with "QFT".
Anyways, I have never used raid before and I would rather have that then a little nicer video card. I don't want to pay a crap load of extra money for a little boost in performance and the 6800GT can't be that bad.
I have read that the onboard sound is pretty good and I may use that over my turtle beach santa cruz sound card. Also, what is the pci-x4 slot for? I don't think I have seen any card that utilizes that yet.

I think I have found a worthy video card:

Many people like it. I currently have an ATI though, but hopefully a Geforce won't disapoint me.
I am rebuilding my computer because it is not as nice as I wanted it to be.
