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.
The difference appears to be Anandtech's initial testing going with stock setting, recommended memory and air cooling, consistent with what the majority of buyers will actually do which is a more honest initial review IMO.

Nvidia is looking at the minigun AMD is likely to bring to the knife fight in 2019 and is busy sandbagging and moating the joint.
A modular scalable gaming optimized architecture vs a monolithic architecture on 7nm provides, what, a Zen like 30 to 40 percent cost to manufacture advantage? Maybe...
The first thing that came to mind when I learned Intel had outsourced it's CPU design to Israel was HARDWARE BACKDOOR.
Chances the U.S. and Israeli security apparatus has backdoor hardware access to all Intel CPUs designed in Israel = 99.99%.
Chances the U.S. and Israeli security apparatus has...
AMD steadily taking market share from Intel with it's Zen based CPUs prove otherwise. Zen 2 on 7nm will decisively validate the superiority of the modular architecture as Intel will literally be unable to physically manufacture a monolithic chip remotely performance competitive with an 7nm Epyc...
This is really about what happens in 2019 and beyond.
AMD's modular CPU and GPU architectures on 7nm vs. Intel and Nvidia monolithic architectures will provide AMD with a substantial manufacturing cost and pricing advantage. Intel will be further disadvantaged by being stuck on 14nm for a...
Nvidia has the same problem as Intel, no modular architecture ready for 7nm. The 7nm 'pipe cleaner' Vega Instinct card coming at the end of 2018 will be modular along with Zen 2. That's AMD's ace up the sleeve, the ability to manufacture their CPUs and GPUs on 7nm substantially cheaper than...
Looking like a much more optimized Ryzen build will be destroying Intel across the boards in six months or so.
So where will Intel be when Zen+ releases in 2018 already fully optimized?
Lol. Released by the CEO at an official even = the 52% IPC increase is etched in stone. Catching up with Intel;s best IN ONE STEP is beyond massive, it's shattering, That's with the INITIAL Ryzen CPUss, expect another 5%+ IPC improvement and substantial higher frequencies with 1850X etal for...
The latest official roadmap lists Navi for 2018 while leaked slides enumerates a Vega 20. Perhaps Navi was renamed. Perhaps Navi is engineered for a 7nm process that will be delayed and Vega 20 is a 14nm enhanced Vega. Insufficient data to know for certain at this time. I speculated based on the...
AMD communicated in detail the changes were non-trivial. There are investors related legal requirements. I would consider myself an ignorant dolt to not take AMD at it's word with an offical presentation.
Those 'deluded' AMD investor fanboys are making money hand over fist. What is your point...
That isn't much time!!! Quite amazing AMD was able to design, engineer, tape out and fabricate a GPU in that time to cover what Polaris shortcomings they could.
