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 am looking to build a new server solution but trying to keep it small (relatively speaking) and as power efficient as possible.
Currently running:
2 x Xeon L5420 50w thermal rating
36GB ECC DDR2
SuperMicro X7DCA-L
Dell Perc6i w/BBWC
Intel GB 4 Port NIC
INWIN Dragon Slayer MATX

A solid year of tweaking and I finally completed my machine. Originally, I was looking to use an Antec P182 case. That went through several revisions:
First watercooling attempt was ok. I didn't take into account how water takes the path with least resistance and one of my video cards wasn't...
I am looking to changing cases. Primarily to get everything internal and with the new room I'll have, I'm curious if changing my loop config would be beneficial. The new case will provide a lot more room and allow dual loops but would it really be beneficial?
Currently I am running;
QX9650 @...
For to my build, I needed to get the EK X-Top for my MCP655. I want to keep it clean and as clutter free as possible. Testing the loop, it appears I have an air bubble in the top and I can't get it out. Every time the pump starts, you can hear it breaking up this bubble. After 30-60s, the noise...
Would a Feser 360 & Thermochill 120 be enough to properly cool a QX9650 and two 4870x2?
I have XSPC blocks for the 4870x2 and Swiftech GTZ with a Swiftech 655 pump. I plan to overclock the CPU (4.0+Ghz) and mildly do the video (if at all).
I know this has sorta been talked about in the few posts below but has the issue with nvidia cards being disabled, when no monitor connected, within Vista been fixed when trying to use it as a dedicated PPU?
I am probably going ATI and will have a third PCIe slot which is begging to be used...
I am looking to sell a barebone system and my water setup, plus spare parts.
Here is the list of parts in barebone and spare

B.I. GT Stealth 120
waterblocks
Swiftech Apogee GT

I thought my system was stable but after a months of usage, what stability I had was degrading. I just want a board that offers more stability. I don't mind letting go of SLI since the GX2 is out or I can just jump on the ATI bandwagon.
I currently have a evga 680i and seems not the best for...
After setting up my rig, I am starting to think that it can be done better. Here are the parts
Swiftech Apogee GT CPU
Swiftech MCW30 Chipset
Swiftech MCW60-R GPU x 2
Swiftech MCP655 Pump
Swiftech MCRES-MICRO reservoirs
Swiftech MCR220-QP

This is my first watercooling project so bear with me for any ignorance.:D
Here is my system specs:
Antec P182 with Scythe S-FLEX SFF21F fans
Q6600 @ 3.2 with plans for 3.6+ (runs 3.6 on air but HOT)
4GB DDR2 G.Skill > plans to move to 8GB later
eVGA 680i A1
2 x eVGA 8800GT SC

I have been reading a lot of threads about issues with 680 chipset and Q6600 so I need a little guidance from you. I want to upgrade to a Q6600 and want to overclock it.
Here are my requirements
max possible OC on Q6600 with air (without being obnoxiously loud)
SLI capable
Will be using...
Does anyone know if there is a command-line for enabling/disabling SLI?
I ask because I've had a nice dual monitor setup for a while (2x 2001FP w/ zero dead pixel). I went SLI recently and the only way to get dual monitor support is to disable SLI. Not a big deal but a pain nevertheless...
