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.
The Galaxy GTX580 is a great deal. Unfortunately I cannot find the card lenght at either Tiger or Galaxy. I guess I'm supposed to just assume it's the reference 10.5" and ship it back if it's longer.
I see that it's an Amazon affiliate -- but only has 16 lifetime feedbacks. They are all positive, but I am still a little uncomfortable sending $429 + shipping to save $40 or so. Someone out there is welcome to take it. I can wait a lttle longer ...
EVGA GeForce GTX 580 015-P3-1580-AR for $429 at solid etech, a seller I never heard of and is not listed on resellerratings.com. Anyone ever do business with them?

NOT A GOOD DEAL AT ALL -- My first search brought up a Diamond 6970 at NewEgg for $368 shipped. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814103182 I'm sure if you actually dig a bit you may find even cheaper -- GEEZ
Once you register with Steam you can play off-line as well as on-line. Plus Steam offers instant game updates when online and the opportunity to try/buy other games. I don't see why some feel a STEAM account is a game negative.
