If you want the 940 why don't you get the 965, it's at 3.4Ghz

AM3 is compatible with AM2+.

Just get the 975 intel. It's bound to be better.

Except it costs £700 and would require a new motherboard and new RAM.

Stock is fine, even if you OC a bit.

965 is entirely useless. Either get a 955 and overclock it or get an i7.

I really don't know where I even got his info for his motherboard. I thought it was AM2 or something. I probably read the wrong thread and went off to another tab.

The stock coolers nice on mine. Don't expect to overclock that much though.
