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.

The fans are already ordered, but i definitely see your point. Only paid $12 for them, so not the biggest loss. Could the case actually be cooler without the 80mm? Would they perhaps disturb the airflow more then help cooling? The reason for filling all the fanslots was because of the location...
As far as I know, all the intakes are filtered, but not with the finest mesh. Someone actually beat you to it on Reddit. I was told SYS_FAN1 provides 3 pin style control, and the rest were 4 pin. I have already ordered two splitters and a pair of Arctic F8 PRO PWM 80mm, as they did great in a...
First, let me say that I'm very much a noob when it comes to this. I've built my own computers before, but nothing fancy. I first posted to reddit, and thought i might give it a shot here as well.
