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'm looking for a smaller/lighter CPU cooler that does a decent job of keeping a CPU cool... I'm not interested in anything like the Prolimatechs but more something with a 92mm fan. What are the best choices?
Also on a side note, which would be a good thermal compound to pair with it, I think...
Depends on what kind of a feel you would like, if you wanted something very slick and fast, look at plastic mouse pads or glass. If you want something that has a nice feel on your wrist and a slight amount of friction, take a look at cloth, there's a comparison of a bunch of different cloth pads...
Yeah I realize the gpu is a bottleneck, but right now the computer will not be able to play through a short game of SC2... As soon as it's running stable I will worry about adding a more powerful graphics card... It may come within the next month or so, I'm considering an MSi GTS 250 for $87...
Well it's an HP build, but the BSOD'ing is coming back and we pretty much want to get rid of anything that might have caused it (ram, harddrive, overheating, whatever)
Anyways after some more research I was able to find a NZXT M59 case for $50 freeshipping/tax
And to go along with that, we...
I think it's the 700w Gamestream power supply, I'm not at all interested in replacing it at this time, when it dies I will have to come around and get something else, but hopefully that doesn't happen for a while...
Hoss thanks for the suggestion, but this build is for a friend who will not...
Shadow song, yes I realize that the graphics is a huge bottleneck, I will try to get that graphics card since I know that $50 it can't really be beat, however, I think the SC2 game crashing has to do with something else besides the graphics card...
Hossdaddy thanks for the suggestion, that...

If you want to go with what under the radar showed, the older version of the same mouse is on sale for $25 after rebate... http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16826146005
The only difference being the color and the sensor I think, I have no idea which sensor they use (or what...
I have to disagree with Wildmonkey, the G500 is quite heavy even with the weight cartridge removed...
As for which mouse, when it comes to gaming, it seems to me that the simpler the mouse shape, the better the mouse... When under the radar was talking about the Naos and not being able to pick...
How do the Philips PLN 2032 (5600dpi) and the Philips PLN 2030 (3200dpi) compare to each other, which is better, are either of them decent?
I'm interested in purchasing a mouse that offers either sensor ( $15 difference or so) and I'm not sure if there's any real difference in tracking...
The kensington wired slim keyboard is what I've been using. I'm really really please with how nice this keyboard feels and performs, it's very cheap, but the materials used and the build quality is really something. This keyboard is a bit heavy and very very solid. None of my keys have been...
