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.

What method did you use for the Thermal paste and which did you use?I used AS5 and a little bigger than pea size.My case is opened on the side.When I raised the CpuCore to 1.30 my temps were sky high at 85+.I was told to keep lowering thr vcore till I reached instability,well I haven't yet but...
