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 just bought an AMD64 3400+ for my new system and some OCZ ultra 5+ thermal compound.
1. Is that thermal paste ok for amd64?
2. How much do I apply? Do I cover the whole surface?
Sorry for the noob questions but I simply don't want to screw up this processor =p
Oh ya, I also got a...
Alright I put the video card in an old 733mhz and it worked. So does this mean my motherboard needs to be RMA'd? Is it possible for just the AGP slot to be dead? Because everything else sounds and looks normal when I turn it on, there's just no video.
