      You can overclock the 940 easily enough. Worked like a charm on my first try and I'm completely new at this overclocking thing. With some tweaking I guess I could have gotten it running at 4Ghz but since I have no interest in such high speeds and the power consumption that goes with it, I have it running stable at 3.6Ghz now. Does it's job like it's supposed to and should prove it's money worth when I start doing some video editing again.
