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.

My last build was a gigabyte P35 board with an E6850 and I am really happy with it. I need to build a new quad system and haven't kept up with the tech advances.
If I am not going to be doing any kind of crossfire which chipset should I pair with the Q9550?
The higher the mAh rating the better. Eneloop batteries might be a good compromise if you don't use the camera often and want to make sure the batteries still have a charge when you pick it up. Most rechargeables discharge quickly over time even when not in use whereas Eneloops hold their...
I have some outdated hardware that I'd rather not throw out, but would be willing to give to anyone who might need them and can pay for shipping.
