I too want to add www.TechPowerUp.com

It's a great website for various mods and overcloking. Use ATItool from that website to overclock any of you Radeon video cards.

Firewall

A really good Free firewall program is, "Comodo," (found at http://www.personalfirewall.comodo.com/). It got a 90%+ rating in one of those PC mags and on top of that its FREE!

A little program that I find really useful as well is entitled, "CPUZ," (found at http://www.cpuid.com/cpuz.php) and it does all of this:
CPU:
-Name and number.
-Core stepping and process.
-Package.
-Core voltage.
-Internal and external clocks, clock multiplier.
-Supported instructions sets.
-Cache information.

Mainboard:
-Vendor, model and revision.
-BIOS model and date.
-Chipset (northbridge and southbridge) and sensor.
-Graphic interface.

Memory:
-Frequency and timings.
-Module(s) specification using SPD (Serial Presence Detect) : vendor, serial number, timings table.

System:
-Windows and DirectX version.

I have three laptops and two PCs on my home network. Not one has a firewall.

None of my friends use firewalls either. Only time I ever use a firewall is if I'm
entering onto a public wireless network with my laptop.

3 years of running machines with no firewall and not once did anything malicious
happen
