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.

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'm having the exact same problem and that patch did nothing for me. Currently installing many windows updates in the hopes that it may fix the issue. However, these other replies have me second guessing my desire to use this software.
That post by Anand was the most informative writing on this I've seen. I'll just keep using the 6gbps ports and exchange the board whenever they have the situation worked out in a month or so.
God this is horrible. Now I have to rely on Asus to send me a replacement motherboard in a month? I literally just built this computer last night, too.
I can tell you that I was getting monitor flicker and occasionally a screen would just stop displaying anything for awhile using u2410's on a radeon 4890. I put in a new amd 6870 last week and have had no problems since. I'm inclined to say that a lot of video cards(probably older ones) aren't...
