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.

I have one and the locks do work. I've had it for a couple of weeks. See sig. My hyper 6 cooler should be in today. Hopefully I will have some better numbers that what the stock cooler is allowing. At least I hope that is the only thing holding me back. So far this board is very stable.
The green box is the old Rev 1.X wireless package
The white box is Rev 2 if it is the non-wireless edition and evidently still Rev 1.X for the wireless edition.
My Rev 2 (non-wireless) came in the white box.
