• 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 printed the application instructions from their site and followed them when I put it on my cpu and waterblock, but I noticed it said once you place the block on the cpu not to move it, since my waterblock already has the tubing clamped to the wb, it was near impossible NOT to move the wb around on the cpu, between that, centering it, and putting those damned retention clips that swiftech gave me, felt like I was breaking something, putting those things in the stock base. Just curious if I moving it around is that big of a deal, and will it hurt my temps? I've never installed anything other than the stock heatsink
 
i think the whole not moving it around is to ensure the AS doenst get on the pins or the mobo... which would probably do some damage.
