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.

Yeah, it's the Gold-certified one.
They sounded so uniform and "electronic" every single time so I just assumed that they were coming from the mainboard. Now that I know what it is, there's no need to get it fixed -- it's actually nice to know when the fan is spinning up.
Just assembled a new system, and am hearing the occasional weird beep pattern when I'm doing various things in Win7/Win8. The best way I can describe it is maybe six or so short beeps, rising in pitch. Seems to happen at random -- surfing the web, playing a game, watching a video, etc...
