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.

So I have an "old" 450 Antec Smart Power psu that came with my full tower case (the alienware lookalike :)). It has two 12V rails, 15A and 17A respectively. I have been doing some sniffing around and my question is, will a dual rail system power this setup (specifically the graphics card)...
