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.

Ok just so you know every time I turn power to + 20 in CCC and overclock. When I run Furmark... Freeze. Also fps jumps to 65 and heat jumps straight to 60 from 33 at idle. I completely understand the fact that you have been a member here for a long time and that I'm new. I also understand that...
Hello to all! I am new to this forum however it has been the most helpful to me in the process of overclocking my 7970. I truly hope others benefit from this post because it has been a long 4 days in figuring this thing out after many failures.
My goal was to achieve the basic max slider that...
