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.
I bought a Q9450 (OEM) in store on Saturday for $350 and a Q6600 G0 (retail) on Sunday for $199.
Availability was better than I could have dreamed. They seemed to have plenty and the salesguys, when asked, had no sense of people rushing in to buy them up.

Asus website be damned. I tried the latest BIOS on my P5W DH (the one listed there). It simply does NOT work properly. The lowest manual VCORE setting they offer in the 2704 bios is 1.45 Volts. READ THE ASUS FORUMS for a particular mobo, especially the 975X chipset ones like the P5W... they...
My Q9450 didn't work out too well in my Asus P5W DH Deluxe... I could only underclock it as the voltages in the manual settings didn't permit any vcores under 1.45V.
So, I have an old school Asus P5W DH Deluxe (2 of them actually) and have some overclocking questions.... in general I wonder if its the mobo that's keeping me from the stratospheric OC's I see others getting or if it's just luck of the draw...
First a word of caution to other P5W DH owners...
