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.

And yes, there was a BIOS update that allows for much higher OCing. :) I just did some research on it. Thanks for pointing that out, would have been a deal breaker if I couldn't...
Awesome, thanks guys. :) So the price cuts are coming on April 22nd? Gah, thats right in the grey zone. Not quick enough, but not too long either. ><
I think I'll wait. I'm waiting for the r600 series anyway. :)
Thanks again!
I'm going to be building a new computer in the near-future. I'm holding out on a new video card until the r600's launch, but until then I still want to upgrade my mobo/processor/ram/PSU/case. I'm wanting to keep my spending restricted to about $800. I'll be doing a lot of 3d work, so a dual core...
