omg... :Q my heart stopped for a minute there. I haven't checked this thread in a few days, and I read what you all said about Monarch not having 939s, and doubted myself for a second, thinking I _had_ bought the 940 socket in my rush to get it before they jacked the price up.
Felt like a complete moron for a moment, because it came in the mail yesterday, I thought how in the hell could I have missed the "940 socket" bit when I ordered it, _and_ when I was taking pictures of the stepping last night. Well, after sprinting across the hall into my room and grabbing the box, I can sigh in relief, it says 939. Hehe, I knew all along...

But seriously, I was scared for a second there, thought I had done something incredibly stupid after having researched for months and months...

Ahhh...
BTW, it was a cabne 0544 EPMW stepping, fingers crossed, hoping for at least 2700Mhz. the rest of my parts come in the mail from Newegg sometime next week.
