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.
Would this type of memory be enough to overclock a Phenom II 940 from 3Ghz to 3.6Ghz +???

That's great to know! My 4870x2 should be here around Wednesday. Should I overclock my CPU/GPU or leave the settings at stock? BTW, I won't be running benches.
I ended up going with the 4870x2 2GB. I also replaced the Seagate 250GB hard drive with the Western Digital 640GB 16MB HDD. Thanks for the input folks. Build is complete!
Actually, I purchased the CPU and motherboard off of Newegg. It was 259.99 for the combo. I really want the GTX 295 since it's suppose to be the top dog but considering that I can purchase the x2 for about 420 buck AR, I don't see why I would purchase a GTX 295 for 500 when it has less video ram...
