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.
Interestingly enough, the 59Hz->60Hz switch DID cause my monitor to flicker momentarily, but after clicking OK, then going back to the Advanced settings again, it was back to 59Hz. Changing it to 60Hz a second time didn't cause the same flicker.
Weird.
I'll have to see if these settings stick...
First, thank you for posting this guide. It's been a big help... but I'm still not exactly where I want to be.
It seems the drivers didn't "take" after a second reboot and I was back at square 1, probably due to the drivers being unsigned =(
