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 built my ncase system recently and the video card I'm using from my old PC runs incredibly hot and ramps up to over 5500 RPM(insanely loud too).
It ran fairly hot in my mid-ATX case at ~75 degrees C under load. But in the ncase it's running at nearly 94 degrees C. I tested the ncase with...
Would there be any problems getting a Corsair Hydro Series H5 SF to fit in an ncase v2?
