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 latest drivers were messing up Left 4 Dead on my computer because the latest drivers are screwed with the multi processing in newer games so i downgraded just 1 below latest

I'm getting a lag every 3 - 4 hours, its a small jitter and it happens twice but it happens and this shouldn't be taking place because it catches me during gameplay. Anyone know what could be doing this?
lol, I tried this before, my comp usually sits at 28C idle, when i put the box fan on it it ran 20C idle, but i didnt really do anymore testing than that, its loud and stupid imo.
Its 70F in my house almost all the time due to nice air conditioning :P (btw 60F is really cold from air...
First of all, 51C temp is not "fine", that is running pretty hot for mobiles seeing as most mobiles default on all the thermalright sp-97's ive seen run on them run at 30 - 35C. Might be something with your motherboard, it would also be helfpul to know what vcore you are at, if thats at 1.65v or...
For a GREAT noise level and pushes a great amount of air, get the 92mm enermax fan w/ speed control, wonderful fan.
For about 1 - 2C less than that, go with the Thermaltake Smart Fan 92mm at SVC.com for the blue LED version, or get the Smart Fan 2 for the nasty orange. :(
The 117CFM 92mm...
Already got results back from that chip, wouldn't do over 2.5 stable. He's got it running at 2.45 now because thats the highest stable clock he can get. I'd go to excalibur and get the 2600+ with the IQYHA stepping if any of you are out there planning on getting this really soon.
Only difference is that the 35w runs at lower voltage at stock speeds, but once you get to overclocking, I think its about the same, guy I know got one, didn't get over 2.5, but then I hear another story about someone getting 2.7 all on air cooling, all the mobiles are just the luck of the draw.
