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.

SilverFox,
If you plan on doing any kind of editing or rendering of your HD content, you might want to take a look at some of our Digital Media or Pro Workstation class machines. They offer Blu-ray burner upgrades for around $200. I'll be happy to answer any specific questions you have about...
ControlS,
Sorry for joining the thread late. We'd love to be able to work with you on your new system. Please let me know if I can answer any questions for you.

Just to echo what Heather already said, getting an extended warranty on a pre-built is never a bad idea, especially if you have the extra cash. No matter how hard any of us try, no PC is bullet proof, and the nature of the beast is that parts can fail from time to time. What sets any boutique or...
I agree with Heather. I think there's the perception that certain companies in the industry charge a premium "just because." In most cases though, there's a justification for the higher cost, whether it be production, testing, or after purchase support. Not to knock or praise anyone, it's just...
