There are 2 bios

Hybrid, which i think "assumes" it is 4 core and tries to load it as such.....i can install this bios but booting with it leads to black screen. CMOS reset takes me back to the "original" bios.

"original" bios which includes ACC lists only 2 cores.


I am convinced there only 2 working cores on the chip despite what the code told me. There was never a guarantee of any unlocking and i bought the chip aware of that fact.


Its a cheap Minecraft build for a friends young daughter.........the cpu was £ 6.00 and the HD 6970 was £30.00, the ram cost me £10.00 and everything else came out of one of my boxes.

If her Dad chooses to spend £30.00 on a quad i will give him that option but as it is i think it is adequate for Minecraft and surfing and at the price i built it for i can afford to give it as a gift.

Like i said before, if it had unlockable cores it would have been a nice bonus.

The Gigabyte board I did my core unlock on was the GA-880GA-UD3H rev2.1. I don't have the board anymore because the AMD 880G chipset started having stability issues, and the Phenom II 960T I swapped into my parents HP system so it's running as a quad core again.

That's nice ... are you sure there are no WHEA errors in the event log? I'd expect some with voltage that low.

That's extreme, thanks to a mature 22nm tech. What power draw has this pc under blend in prime?

Very interesting results so far, please keep the submissions coming.



Can anyone remember a similar thread from the past so we can compare results over time?

I'm actually thinking of pushing it a bit further, my current OC is a 'lazy' one, I'm quite sure I can lose some volts (and gain some frames).
