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 just started a TS/MoM/AA incinerate scion build. Although low level (26) I'm having a blast. I found Searing Touch staff with +2 to fire gems, +41% spell damage, and +31% fire damage (http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Searing_Touch) and mobs just melt away. Although I'm a bit less tanky, I...
I was goofing around with "Cast on Critical Strike" support. Attached two Ethereal Knives skills to my split arrow skill and had some fun, but in my current uild I don't have any crit chance increase nodes yet. Even still it was neat to see the knives going off on monsters at the edge of my...
I can't hear my fans running unless I squat down under my desk. Noise isn't an issue. Don't try to out-mathimatize me on this one. I know the 80s aren't equivalent in CFM, but I don't need more.
I don't plan on overlocking this much if at all so I feel like 4-80mm fans plus the 120mm in the PSU will be fine. I don't see how switching to a case with 2-120mm is going to make a significant difference.
If it ends up running high temps I'll consider plopping down some moola.
I ended up going with:

$70- G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1866 (PC3 14900)Model F3-14900CL9D-8GBXL (Was on sale for $10 more than the value series today)

Here's what I've put together today. Total is $909.63 with the monitor. $709.63 without monitor and $674.63 after mail-in rebates. I think my Windows 7 Key from my University will transfer over so that's my free Windows 7. Any suggestions are very much appreciated.

I've just finished my Bachelors degree and I'm looking for a new Desktop to replace my Dell laptop for gaming and 1080p video playing. It's been 8 years since I built a computer and I'm out of date on most everything.
I primarily play World of Warcraft and I'd like to get much better graphics...
