Well I have everything but the board, awaiting the release. Lets see if phenom + DDR3 is good :) I'll have allot more shortly. Looking forward to comparing this machine. Plan on using the stock heatsink from my 940, just want to give it a try and sell this machine cheaply if possible at some point. I have a BIOSTAR TFORCE TA790GX 128M AM2+/AM2 coming in the mean time to test the chip with DDR2 1066 :)

Benchies:
Please keep in mind these are synthetic benchmarks which don't always show the true speed in actual use, but they are helpful in comparing systems. For instance people killing AMD because they lose in benchmarks to Intel rigs. But in actual day to day use either AMD or Intel systems rock. Basically spend more for Intel and get a faster rig or save and get AMD. In actual use IMO almost no difference. For uses like folding Intel has an advantage, gives the tech pages something to write about :) . I can tell you a raptor hard drive in either system feels faster in actual use. Well enough of my ramblings.
