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 heard that Gigabyte downgrade their boards with revisions of its original motherboards. It's easy to spot since they have Rev 1.1 or Rev 2.0 or Rev 3.0, but with a same EAN code shops can't tell the difference. Does this also happen with other brands? I'm worried that my next purchase, I end...
I have the ASRock Z97E-ITX for awhile, the things I like about it: Realtek ALC1150,
Wi-Fi 802.11a/b/g/n/ac 450Mbs over the air using an AC router with Bluetooth 4.0 / 3.0 + High speed class II, HDMI-In for plugging in other HDMI devices...and that's a lot of goodies that Asus probably can't...
I'm sure Rampage V Extreme is good, but its almost 500 bucks on Amazon...my goodness 100-150 more than most X99 boards and starting to get tired of the red and black layout:

Not sure if this is only confusing to me, but why are there so many different versions of X99 boards by EACH manufacturer?
I'm looking at Asrock, they have about 10 models: http://www.asrock.com.tw/microsite/IntelX99/
Then I'm looking at MSI and there are 6 models...
Seems that it goes in cycles...where sometimes Kingston is good, then Crucial and now seems that OCZ is not bad...but PNY I'd reconsider and how's their RMA?
