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.

AMD Athlon 64 3000+, 512KB L2 Cache 64-bit Processor - $172
Then I would wait until the supply of 6800 GT's increased and the price falls to...
The closed T:V beta test has been going on for about a month now. The open beta test will hopefully be out at the end of this month or early september. If you are a Fileplanet subscriber you are supposed to get the beta test a week before everyone else, which should be anytime now.....
