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.
The Card
One of the three fans (closest to the rear of the case) seems to have some ball bearing/friction/lubrication issues.
When the card is turned off, and I spin the fan blades with my finger, the fan in question stops very quickly after I apply a force to it, where as the other 2...
The item never appeared out of stock for me.
I contacted an adorama representative much earlier today who seemed concerned about the website. However unlikely it may be, it's possible that they added functionality in the way of an availability notifier.
Done. I additionally emailed their various departments, informing them that I had spread the word to various tech sites about their questionable shipping practices and ordering policies.
By the way, Amazon is currently selling RX 700's for $33 w/ free shipping! 6~ left in stock. Get'em while...
I ordered JVC HARX700 headphones from Adorama a week ago. I found out 20 minutes ago that they still have not shipped my order. Apparently their website doesn't tell you when your item is not in stock; It just takes your money and back orders the item.
They gave me a free upgrade to UPS Ground...
You guys are so gay for 2gb cards. If you're going for high FPS, then turning down detail/resolution is a must, which leads to a natural drop in required vram. Hence, this is a card for people who want performance without paying for the eye candy.
That description would taste better coming out...
Hey guys! I'm new to the audio section of the forum, so I thought I'd break the ice with a request aaand a recommendation of mine.
Request:
Looking for a good headset for under $30. I could browse amazon and pick the one that looks the flashiest, since that's all I'd really be going off of...
I have a 120hz monitor at native 1680x1050, and had hoped to hit 120+ fps in the newer games (bf3) on medium (or lower) settings.
Since I need to turn the settings down quite a bit to get those FPS, even with crossfire, my system won't use as much vram. So yeah that was the general idea :D...
Hey guys! I'm about to pull the trigger on a set of video cards. I know that most cards of the same model will CF perfectly well, but I wanted to be sure before making my purchase. I hope you'll excuse my insecurity.
So, will these two cards crossfire together well enough?

HardOCP recently reviewed how a few setups performed in BF3. You can find the link as a sticky/announcement on the front page, or at the bottom of this post.
They compared the 580 to the 6970, both in single and dual GPU modes, and found the following in 1920x1200 resolution with ultra settings...
Hmm, more processing power? Higher temperatures? Not really sure.
In any case, if anyone knows of any studies or official press releases from the big-2 regarding how vsync effects multiGPU stuttering, I would greatly appreciate it. Or similarly, if anyone has personal experience with this, i'd...
