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.
Managed to get a Asus Proart x670e for $160 at that auction site.

Went with them just because of price. I don't like MSI's...
I too went from a 5900x to a 9950X3D. Managed to get an insane deal on the CPU at an auction so decided to finally go AM5.
Went from 64GB (4x16 sticks) to 96GB (2x48GB).
Everything is snappier. CAD work is better. Gaming is better but I'm on a RTX 3080 10GB so kindof of limited there at my...
If the specs are true then I may upgrade my EVGA Hybrid FTW 2080 Super
