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 haven't used an ATI card since the 9200- so now that my 4870 is up and running, I'm acclimatizing to the catalyst control center and Hydravision. One of the contributing factors in my switch to ATI was that nVidia's multiple-monitor control application, nView, STILL isn't available for Vista...
I haven't seen and 4800-series cards from Asus, but apparently they exist.
A 1 gig 4850 but no 1 gig 4870? Ahh well.. I'm sure if the 4870 x2 comes out, that'll be the enthusiast's dream for the next little while...
Asus' support website has gotten much better than it used to be, but...
VisionTek only mentions that they're a "premium retail partner", which is probably what the other brands are as well.
I've heard a few horror stories about EVGA- I'm leaning toward HIS and VisionTek at the moment (partly because they seem to be decent brands, and partly because they're in...
Agreed- I'm not so sure about Sapphire cards. Back when ATI was it's own company, I got the impression that the Sapphire brand is where ATI sold its less-than-stellar cards. Even though Sapphire made the majority of ATI cards, I think they may have saved the best chips for ATI branding. Who...
It seems every time I've gone to buy a new video card, nVidia has been the 'best' choice- but this time ATI seems to be the way to go (and I'm more than happy to fund nVidia's once-Canadian competition!). I'm used to dealing with the usual brands for nVidia cards (and happen to be a BFG fan...
Armoursuit P60 or its more subtle cousin, the A17.
There's the A77as well, if you want the extra space.
I've owned both Silverstone and LianLi cases, and while they both look nice I've found Lian Li has an edge in terms of quality- they're a little sturdier, a little easier to work in and...
there's no reason you can't put the harddrives in 'backwards'; I'm not sure whether they fit but with some right-angle connectors they'd probably fit.
As for the mounting holes at the bottom of the chassis to show off your RaptorX- the floor is relatively smooth, with a few holes for the case...
I'm still likin' the A17... the space on this puppy is great.. but I just don't need it anymore. The A-17's a great alternative if you like this style of case
It's nice to see pictures of this case start to appear! Few people seem to be discussing it.
I've been waiting for a Canadian supplier to stock one of these; whatever stock of the black version of this case seems to have been sold out to the lucky few first buyers. I've seen an ETA of April...
Ordered one from Dell.ca today- I'll post whether it's an A04 when it arrives. Judging by how many others have received A04s in this thread, I'm confident I'll receive one as well.
And if it's only an A03.. no biggie. Still a great panel (and I couldn't care less about 1080p, 1:1 pixel...
