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'm relatively new to the SLI / CFX thing, but I've liked the results of dual cards driving games. I have one question, though, about compatibility with motherboards. On my most recent build, I went the SLI route and built around this board: ASUS M4N98TD EVO AM3 NVIDIA nForce 980a SLI ATX AMD...
