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.
So I thought I would post this here.

They disabled hibernate because the laptop uses an SSD. Hibernating is bad for SSD and can wear them out faster. If you dont want it to come awake why don't you just shut it down with the SSD it doesn't take long to boot.
2nd monitor will be added within the next 3 weeks (thinking about getting 24" with 1920 x 1200 resolution) and that's why I choose to add the 4850's X-fire as I think that right now they are the best bang for the buck.
The review I was refering to on the PSU I found here...
The reason I was going Xfire was because I was planning on upgrading the monitor (and running a duel screen setup with the old monitor as the 2nd screen) at a later date and I wanted to be already ready for that plus be able to have some longevity and I figured the X-Fire setup would do nicely...
