Steam, Sandy Bridge and security??

[Duke{CLR}]

Look what I found in my morning news, apparently there is some security feature on theses chips that will identify the PC. This is the first I hear of this, I hope that it allows more then one CPU to every account.

Sounds like a voluntary thing to add extra security to your Steam account:

It's all for a good cause, though: using Steam Guard, Valve says users will be able to tie their Steam account to a given PC. They'll also receive notifications if someone tries to log into their account from another, unauthorized system. That could help limit the effect of phishing and account hijacking—Valve's "#1 support issues," according to CEO Gabe Newell.
