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 was thinking about a 2TB NAS that could, while...
I was looking for a mATX board and they only had one board, which I was told was mislabeled as mATX, so I got a gigabyte Z68MA-D2H-B3 for my new mATX build. It paired with the 2600k for the $50 discount though. :D
As an update, I went to get a 2500k and Z68 motherboard per the website but an updated flier in the store revealed that the bundle is good on 2500k, 2600k, and 2700k purchased with any Z68 or Z77 board.
I built an Athlon II X4 computer about a year ago for my mom to do email just because it was so cheap. A Phenom II is overkill but unless it's cost effective to return it, just roll with it.
