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 recently upgraded my Monitor to a 28" 4k Asus. I have a Geforce 970 currently. It handles everything fairly well, but I was reading guides online that were saying to go for the 980 or the 390x for 4k gaming. Im not looking to get 60 FPS outta the newest games, but I am wondering if it is worth...
Im on comcast and I followed an online guide to set my IP and forward some of my ports. Yes, Im pretty sure it is for my Lan, but I had to get the IP address from comcast to actually set it all up, My real concern was if I needed to re setup all my devices or set it all back to automatic so...
I am moving from Texas to Louisiana, I currently have my PC set with a static IP addresse. can I keep this IP address, or do I need to make a new one?
I only ask cause I have heard stories of people pinging a stolen machine cause it had a static IP on it.
Thanks

So I made a Ghetto stethoscope out of a rolled up peice of paper, and it is deffinatly coming from the Vid Card. I stopped the fan with my finger for a second but the noise persisted so I dont think its the fan either. Must be the coil that was mentioned several times.
I think I may try to...
Yea, I was gonna try and pinpoint the noise tonight once I get home. It did buzz through my speakers the other day, but I messed with the speaker plug and it went away.
Its not terrible, and if that is somewhat normal then fine, but I feel like it should be silent given its 12 days old.
Yea, Im pretty sure its a fan on the vid card as well, was just looking for loose conformation based on the symptoms. Its deffinately not high pitched, Very distinctivly a buzzing sound.
Looks like I may be exchanging this.
Thanks

I recently built a PC with an i5 4690k Processor, MSI z97 PC Mate MotherBoard, and a PNY geforce 670.
I run at native 1920x1080.
Everything went together smoothly and it all runs great, but when I play a Game (Homeworld remastered, SIm City, Xcom etc.) on ultra settings, I get a noticeable...
Yeah, I got to the boot menu and set it to USB cd/dvd drive, but it still wouldnt boot. There is 4 options, CD/dvd, USB CD/DVD, UEFI CD/DVD, and USB/UEFI CD?DVD...which one should I choose.
Im try to make an ISO of the disc
I just built my new pc. I have a dvd of windows 8.1 and a USB dvd drive. When I go into the bios to set the boot priority, How should I set ip up? I have a CD/dvd option, a USB cd/dvd option, a UEFI cd/dvd option, and finally a USB/UEFI cd/dvd option.
Is there something I am overlooking here...
Cool and thanks for the info. I have a quick question. Is a mid size tower and a full case dramatically different? Ive only ever owned full tower cases. The parts will fit in a mid size case correct?
Damn, figures I'd have to upgrade to 8 enevtually.
Next week or so.
The micro center is really close, thats where I was gonna try and order the parts from. There or newegg
Thanks for that, I'm not holding my breath on them being caught
