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 have a MSI 290X Lightning and that thing is cool and quiet. Expensive but you were asking about the best one. There was a rumor going around that the side fans weren't spinning because the MSI utility showed them at 0% but that of course was not true. I got the UEFI bios from MSI that fixed...

I have a feeling even if he did read the article, he would pick and choose sentences out of it to support his claim without taking the whole thing in context. It not worth anyone's time to try to convince him otherwise. I find this kind of attitude and fanaticism humorous and kinda sad in...
It's not called "restricted boot". If you're able to cite any reputable sources to backup your claims, please do so.
This explains what Secure Boot does.

I'm already using Windows 7 on my laptop and Vista on my other computer. Both aren't really too bad. Vista is really pretty solid even though it got so much bad press. Windows 8 will take getting used to but in the end, it probably won't be that bad either. Some people love to hate on...
Proof reader for Yahoo news maybe but who really cares. Seriously, we all have these moments sometimes. Not everybody has the time to become a computer expert or track down some obscure setting that's messing with their build.
It's most likely something that scheduled itself to run with...
