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.
So is the temporary solution to move my SSD and other hard drives to the SATA 6GB connections?
I hope RMA = a new replacement board and not a 'fixed' board that someone else has returned.
Comparing the hardware and software head-to-head - HardOCP's testing methods were fine.
However, there are a lot of performance complaints about the ATI 10.7 drivers at Rage3D. I suspect a driver issue. Hopefully Kyle will re-do this comparison when ATI releases a better driver release.
