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.

I ran about 10 degrees cooler with a slightly unstable setup that had me...
Here's a night view video walk-around. Sorry for the graininess and the washed out colors. The camera was struggling with color/lighting. Almost everything came out blue... even the UV cold cathodes which are purple. The IRL colors are a lot more crisp.

is this any good? I would really like to have some UV color in my WC system, but I don't want to deal with any gunking and what not. Does anyone have any experience with this coolant?
