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've always used paste and never had a problem.
The CPU I took out had paste that was nearly 4 years old, and while it was showing slight signs of drying out there'd been no noticeable impact on temps or performance at all. I bought some new...
Recently upgraded my AM4 system with the anniversary 5800X3D, and was interested to see how the Carbide pad would perform.
It's been in situ for a few weeks now, and my rig has been through perhaps a hundred or so high temp cycles. Just ran...
Just upgraded my AM4 build with a 5800X3D and 9070 XT.
This great old case still keep everything cool and runs whisper quiet during most tasks. Only heavy gaming or benchmarking gets the 180 fans roaring.
What the hell happened to the dedicated...
