I try and take super good care of my stuff to make sure it is in very good condition because I upgrade so much. The great thing about my MSI board is it will boot way over 300 FSB with a phenom II, the built in video card is the fastest on board video card made and it's overclockable, plus it has the most usbs in it's class , it a great motherboard.

might have made a mistake.

Just bought a I7 systems and I'm rethinking that decision, half tempted to take it back and keep this rig, because the phenom II at 3.8ghz, runs a bunch cooler (like 40c cooler) and I cannot tell a difference so far even with the I7 at 3.9ghz. Plus the I7 runs so freaking hot my 4870 1 Gb, with a after market cooling, will not run at the same overclock because my case is now a oven. Thats even with 6 fans one of which is a 250mm side fan.

Time to move to water, and forever forget about high temps in your case. :D

Thx but not interested in water too lazy. :laugh: If you want this system you better get it quick because. I may return my ram and x58 motherboard, then sell my intel chip I7 and move back to AMD. I'm not kidding either got the intel chip so cheap I would make money on it. The only thing stopping me now is the pain in the ass 3rd rebuild, but I'm considering it right now.

Just a little bump.

Sent this to a buddy of mine looking for a 940 and 790FX. He would probably be willing to go with the 790GX for this amazing price.

Great price. Hope these are still here this afternoon when he gets home.

Just spoke to my buddy. If these are still here in the morning (9:00 am CST), I will PM you and he will take both. :rockout: Paypal is prefered, correct? How will they be shipped?? UPS??

Hell of a deal, as he was fixing to buy a 940 and DFI 790FX, but for the price, can't beat it. :toast:

Quick question though. What is the highest voltage you have ran through the 940??

Thanks TRT740, even if they are gone in the morning, you a pretty nice guy for letting these go at this price.

Edit: :banghead::banghead::banghead: Too late. Congrats.
