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.
Not at all......when used for it's designed intentions. They're self contained, easy to set-up, comes in a nice box, very quiet,etc. They're just not built with extreme overclocking in mind. Espescially not a super hot prescott (oc'd to 4.2ghz I might add...very nice) and 2 oc'd 7800's
like most Ferrari's will trounce most Volkswagons, most Volkswagons will trounce most horses, unless of course your trying to get up a muddy hill
you have to pick the right tool for the job
in the case of a turnkey solution, budget, ease of use for a n00b ect all factor into it
the EXOS2 is considered a very nice external turnkey
Im reviewing a ICM150 currently (well it just arrived and photography starts at sunup)
