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.
only differences would be stability problems possibly
also if your using an older chip like a Thunderbird and Overclocking it to Barton 3200 speeds you will see a difference becasue Barton's have more features and more instruction sets than the Thunderbirds.
Feel free to correct me if anyone wanst to, ive never dealt with AMD chips and all i said above was just from reading forums etc.
