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.
A few pointers, as I recently built a computer for a buddy of mine in Ontario:
1. Corsair 750D. Get it if you can (it was just released)
2. Wait for the R9 290X if you can. Availability might be limited as it's just been released.
3. If you're doing potential SLI, I'd recommend the X1050...
This is such an exciting time to buy a new pc! I was in the same boat 4 months ago and wish I had waited. But hey, CF 7970s aint bad for $550 when I got it. :)
Anyway, 3 things I'd recommend:
1. wait for the R9 290. Preorder it when it goes online Oct 4 (I think).
2. get the newly released...
