Welcome to the AMD Phenom II OverClocker's Club! This is where you can converse with other Phenom II owners and show off your overclocks! If you are a soon to be Phenom II buyer you can ask questions and get some good info on which boards are good at overclocking and if your board supports it or not. All 790GX boards do Phenom II support out of the box, but some will require a bios flash to fully recognize.

Asus M3A79-T 790FX/SB750 (Just dropping it in my system specs rig)
AMD Phenom II X4 940 BE

Water Cooled:
D-Tek Fuzion v1, Swiftech MCP350 w/XSPC Top, BIX240 rad. w/141 CFM Delta Fans
 
Man if I had the funds I would death clock one right now!!!!!

I want to play with AMD soooo freaking bad.


Me and AMD CPU happy.

Me and Intel makes me:banghead:
 
If you sell your QX9650 and 790i you would have well over the amount of money to buy a CPU + mobo. :)
 
I'll get one, maybe not at launch necessarily, but I'll get a 940 within the next couple months. I'll be looking for a stable 24/7 clock.

He'd be taking a step backwards. Benchers like us can't do that. If anything, we keep the Intel, and scrape up to buy the Phenom II to play around with, while using the Intel to chase the records.

I know but they don't have ddr3 motherboards.......
 
I'm in. I've got my Biostar Tforce TA790GX3 ready to go, with the latest bios. I have a 945 BE coming to me right after Christmas. That is not a misprint!! It will water cooled under my Dtek Fusion V1.

Where are you able to get a 945 that early?

Yeah but he is a bench junkie, why would he exchange a ferarri for a Nissan with a 15 ton trailer attached to it? :p :rockout: Seriously though :)....these any good, it's about time I played with AMD again.
 
Looks like I am getting a 940 guys. Thanks to my dad :) Traded my 360 for some 940 funds :pimp:
 
Definitely buying one. Aiming for the 940, possibly ending up with the 920 though.
Motherboard - Foxconn A7DA-S AM2+ 790GX/750SB
Cooling - Xigmatek HDT-S1283
 
I should have a 945 ES chip today, with any luck. Since I am not under any kind of NDA, I will be posting some screenies.
