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.
WOW Thanks Bill

You have chosen some nice components.
Just go with a good mid-range price board save your big expentature on a good graphics card & cpu also try a WD Raptor Hard drive for your main system drive.
I have had some good advice from BillParish within this forum. However, I still can't manage to overclock more than 2.1 Ghz. The dam thing keeps booting almost reaching POST then re-starts itself. I then go in check the BIOS and the CPU Host Frequency has reset itself to default (266) dissabled...
Thanks 4 the advice I will try what you said and if no joy will re-seat the CPU Heatsink & Fan. Also can you recommend a fan for MCH/NB Please?
