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.

has to be frustrating to trash a new motherboard and processor due to a screw up. then again that is life.
nice to see you have a setup working now. I like MX-4 myself and I use that with my R5 2400G processor parked on an X470 board
