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.

The 1U heatsink that came with the Motherboard was only about 1cm high and would overheat in...
It is a fully functional PC
P3 900 MHZ, 256 ram, 30 GB of Hard disk space, running a very stripped down windows with Open Home theater as the shell. On board network for easy uploading of files, and it has S-Video out for connection to a TV.
Video playback is flawless, but it only has stereo...

You think I'm joking don't you.
One of the easiest case mods I think I have done, I didn't even have to get out the dremel.
I need to get some black tubing or something to neaten up the hole for the passive heatsink and it's done.
