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.
got my shimian from accessorieswhole today. ordered it sunday, they shipped monday, and it got here to maine this afternoon. no dead or stuck pixels, gorgeous looking monitor. not too bad for $340 shipped. if you grab one, definately give him a look.
System ran fine yesterday before the new cooler and psu install. Thougt it weird that it booted fine first time and ran cool. Got a new tube of thermal compound today and am going to try and reseat the cooler after work tonight.
So, I installed a new power supply and h60 cooler last night. Booted into windows and ran intel burn test and my temps seemed good. Rebooted, overclockers to 4.5 and rebooted. Didn't get into windows got a fatal exception instead. Rebooted and nothing. Black screen. Reset CMOS and set bios...
Decided to give a little bit of oc to my 2500k with the stock cooler, until I get into a new case and cooler. 4.2ghz at 1.25v , prime95 for 6 hours, 72c top temp. Safe to run it this way for a bit or no?
Thanks for the replies :)
I game and normal daily stuff. Don't have a real need for an upgrade, but I have the fever of late :)
Running a 7870 at 1200/1450 and have had smooth performance, just wanted to maybe squeeze a little more out :)
