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 have always bought BFG video cards. Now that they are no longer making video cards, I do not know which brand I should choose. I'm looking for a company that is as good as BFG. One last thing, I prefer NVIDIA.
To tell you the truth, most cards are just nvidia reference designs. That being said, I chose eVGA since they have a great warranty and I've used their cards for a long time.
keep in mind (if buying evga) that some have 2 year warranty and some have lifetime. You have to register on their website (within 30 days of purchase) for both or you get the default of one year only (I believe)
