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.

Bump.

Hi all,
Just bought this board and an Intel i5-3570K based on the glowing review here. What brand / type of memory should I use? Does memory speed matter if you are not into bench marking?
Haven't been keeping up with the hardware scene lately. Last computer built was the DFI Lan...
