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.

that would be pointless to flash back to a 9600Pro. you lose some architecural enhancements the 9600XT has over the Pro, but I guess you would have bragging rights for who can OC the highest with default cooler on a 9600Pro

Lol, if you have to flash so desperately, flash it to a 9600XT. ^_^
I suppose you could flash it to a 9600 Pro, then back to a 9600 XT.
BTW, you DO realize that when you flash stuff, you risk ruining it if something went wrong? It doesn't even have to be as serious as power blinking. Normally such things don't happen, but, really you should never flash a BIOS of any kind unless you actually need the change. Since the XT is already the high end model, what else could you get?

Heh, ok.
I'm pretty sure that the 9600XT is as high as you can go with that thing. What about updating your MB bios? That should give you something to flash. ^_^
