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 installed 2 sticks of 4GB DDR 2400 CL16 ram in place of the new stuff I bought and the system seems stable enough. Im gonna do a stress test overnight and see how it goes. No speckling or reboots for hours, hopefully it was just the ram.
I reseated the CPU and re-pasted last night as well as the GPU. However now the PC is randomly locking up. Under stress or just idling. However I haven't tried re-seating the ram or mobo power plugs yet so I will give that a go tonight. And if problems persist I will go for a RAM swap. I...
It doesn't artifact at all while gaming . I played Metro and RE2 on max setting for over an hour each with no issues. Could the memory be causing that speckling?
I just built a new gaming rig and from the word go it has been behaving strangely. Sometimes right at boot i see some artifacting, maybe not artifacing but fuzzy looking different colored pixels even on the bios splash screen.
Also, i have an m.2 boot drive that is always recognized in BIOS...
