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.

Get the eVGA 8800GT, it has a lifetime warranty. They don't discourage oc, they have their own forums where people talk oc. The warranty covers everything except physical damage to the card. Kill the card overclocking that's ok. You can even put an aftermarket cooler on the card and if you kill...
