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.

Eh, I can't be bothered to care with 1tb ssd hitting $60 on deals at this point and 2tb ones cresting $100 to $120 every week or two

The size of almost all graphics drivers has increased, but broadband speeds have also increased. It really doesn't seem like an issue to me, especially since you can delete the download after you install the driver. I mean, a single-layer DVD-R from a quarter century ago was 4.5GB. 1.2GB really is not huge...

Goes back pretty far. Was using it for a clients intel 7th series igpu.But its only for 11th gen and newer igp cpu's...still does not compute.
Not the Arc drivers...maybe we are confusing legacy vs ARC drivers?
Yup just checked you are right...even older drivers, wow.

I remember a while back Nvidia said their drivers now have more lines of code than all of Windows XP or something, complicated business these GPU drivers.
