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 was looking through NewEgg and saw that they have the 6800LE as having the same clock speed on the RAM and core as the standard 6800. Is this a typo or is their some other difference (pipelines etc)? Thanks.
The 6800LE has 8 Pixel Pipelines, and 4 Vertex Shaders, while the 6800NU has 12 Pixel Pipelines, and 5 Vertex Shaders. Both have a 256bit memory interface, thats about it.
Chances of them unlocking are amazingly rare. Those are not only the 6800U/GTs that didnt make it, but also the 6800nu's that didnt pass, so you can gather that chances of unlocking are extremely little.
