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.

Sorry, I just had to emphasize that. When you call customer support just make sure that you say that it was dead on arrival. They shouldn't have any problems, though the wait for the replacement board may take a while. Then again, if it's not packaged regularly, they should have plenty of the...
The processor does come with a heatsink, a massive one at that. I couldn't find thermal paste in the box though, so that may be something you want to consider investing in (it comes with thermal strips, but still).
Right now I'm settling with a 7200 RPM hard drive and 4GB PC5300 RAM. It...
