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.
Hey guys! i was looking if i could get some advise on picking out a decent cooler preferably around $50. i dont want to spend to much as i want to try out building a full on water cooled system sometime this year.
What are you planning to do with your processor? If you are just wanting a mid-oc until you go water then 1 fan should be fine for now. It is also highly dependent on your case cooling. Minimal air flow will suffocate the HSF and cause higher temps.
well right now i have an antec 900 v2, but this week i will be ordering a rv02 or the ft02 (if i can justify spending the extra cash).
i only want to get 4.2->.5 so it shouldnt be that harsh on the temps. i think i might be able to do it with the stock cooler but i dont want to chance it.
This. I upgraded from a Hyper 212+ to a TRUE Spirit 120 and the only complaint I have is that the heatsink and fan are so quiet that I can hear my other fans rattling. A great upgrade.
Hyper 212+ Took my cpu to 4.6 1.465 V-ID. at 25 dollars you can start saving your money with the money you save from other coolers. no need to try and get best possible temps if your serious about going water.
