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.
OK, so they work great, but how do you guys keep em taunt enough on the fan face to not get sucked into the blades? If I jsut slip like a little tube of nylons over the fan, it's not tight enough, and gets sucked too close and whines/rips
I've never heard/thought of this. Sounds like a good idea.
Pull the nylon taught over one end (you only want it on one side right?) and tightly apply some tape, or a rubber band (in addition to super glue/some sort of cement to make a more permanent fix). Would something like this work well enough?
