• 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 am currently running an i5 2500K with https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007R21JJK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 as my motherboard. What I am wondering is if I can use a new CPU, for instance an i5 7600K, without upgrading my MB. No real budget target. Best bang for buck, but longevity and quality are certainly key factors. This is primarily a gaming machine.

Other components:
CrossFire R290X
16GB RAM
Seasonic SS-1250 Power Supply
LG 34UM95
Occulus Rift

I kind of figured, but thought I would double check anyway. Thank you for your response.
