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.
This is a safety mechanism to prevent voltage spikes on your audio gear, specially if you have an amplifier connected to your card, thus absolutely normal.
i'm going to be using FP headphone and Analogue L+R outputs. In the process of building the workstation area at the moment though so haven't really tested yet. It's good to know that its normal to be that loud though lol
