Your mb does offer the unlock feature in bios? If yes the cpu is probably unlockable or native dual core.

i tried 2 different bios and there are unlock options. It didnt detect cores 3 and 4.

I think it cost me £ 6.00 so finding 2 more cores would have been a double bonus.

You were able to unlock 5 and 6 ?
Managed to unlocked core 6 core 5 was bad with both flipped on instant bluescreen before Windows hardly got far booting.

Did 3.7 GHz @ default Vcore of 1.3 on all 5 cores but required 1.43 to reach 4 GHz on all 5 cores, temperatures weren't outrageous for me however. On chip North bridge overclocked to 2.8 GHz easily.

They never made a callisto core. It's a deneb with two cores shut off. If it won't unlock it's an issue with that specific bios. I had an athlon x3 that wouldn't unlock the 4th core on the 780g board I was using but would on the 760g. Both could however unlock the cache.

I've settled for 4.6Ghz (and a bit) @ 1.21vcore for my 5960X setup.. Most of my other rigs do sit between 4.4Ghz and 4.8Ghz, but there's an odd couple that are just in the 2.2Ghz to 2.5Ghz range as well :)

Mine moves a little with the seasons. Summer time like now I'm running 4.3Ghz on air.

When it cools a little the water cooler will come back out and I'll go up to 4.8Ghz. The only reason I don't use water in summer is my setup uses a secondary case for the radiator, pumps, res ect. Where that case sits suffers from poor airflow and in summer it just circulates hot air under my desk cooking me! It's not so bad in winter.

4.2 for when it's needed, 24/7 I use it at it's 3,7 stock, but at a lower voltage, 1,35v instead of the stock 1,425v.
@CAPSLOCKSTUCK I'm with cdawall here, that's a Deneb with a bios that is not even trying to unlock it, there are no dual core parts with 6MB of L3. Since the FX and APUs AMD stopped inventing names for the cut-down products.
I had a 550BE, never booted with any of the cores unlocked...
