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.
Called the Micro Center in Denver earlier and they said there was no trace of the 7970 in their system, but I should call back tomorrow in case they get some delivered.
Guess I'll be F5ing Newegg/Amazon with everyone else.
For me, Crossfire gets disabled after waiting/sleeping, and certain dialog. Alt-tabbing out and back into the game fixes it.
Renaming to oblivion.exe fixes the CF issue but it also screws up HDR (light level doesn't adjust properly when you look from the ground to the sky, for example).
The 8800 GTX does fit in a P180 with the upper drive cage installed -- but you can't have a drive in the top slot of that cage.
Here's a picture of mine (the drive on its side came from the top slot in the upper cage -- my bottom cage is already full).

Six hard drives: 74 gig Raptor, two Seagate 160s for miscellaneous crap, and three Seagate 250s in a RAID 5 array for important stuff.
Eventually I'll be moving the array to a dedicated fileserver machine, I just need to get around to actually buying the parts for that.
But yeah, wiring is...
