guys i got phenom II x3 720 with ECS 790GXM-UD3, please need bios to unlock 4th core and i will be grateful

Athlonite · Jan 22, 2011

does the mobo normally allow you to unlock cores um not according to your manual so I don't think anyones going to able to miraculously enable something your mobo never supported in the 1st place

Sure that's not an 790GX-AD3?

This is the July 21st bios that enhances core performance boost control. You're bios may only require to set ACC to Auto.

EDIT:

Also wanted to add, unlocking a 720 Black is very very picky. Not many can unlock. What is your batch #? I know mine would unlock but when unlocked wouldn't boot off hdd's through SATA interface.

thats a great ghetto mod, and I think the NB likes to be cool with AM2+/AM3 chips, the NB getting hot seemed to be the cause of my 1090T thottleing to 1600mhz during stress tests.

since I pointed a 120mm fan at it and my gfx card, no throttle and lower temps all round :toast:

throttling to 1600mhz?? explain!!!!!

it was a tricky one to pin down, I am running atm a 3600mhz overclock on the 1090T, 3000NB, 2400 HT. bios CPU voltage is 1.375v (droops to 1.3-ish under load)

basically after a good few minutes of stress testing like IBT or Prime, say 3-5 minutes, using coretemp or CPU-Z they both showed the CPU throttle back to 1600mhz until I killed the test, the it would pop back up to 3600mhz...

after hawkeyeing HWMonitor during these situations (and playing a shitload with a lot of votlages - with no success), I looked at the NB temps and decided to point a fan at it (keeping it a good 7-10 degrees lower) and behold no more throttleing, It couldnt get through pass 1 of IBT at any clock between 3600-4000mhz before and now it completes all 5 no throttle and no errors.

de.das.dude · Jan 22, 2011

oh. i never heard that before..... gotta check my system.....

I wouldnt worry too much, I know my board is the limiting factor in my setup, its a micro ATX Asus 785G, only a 4-pin CPU connector and DDR2...

If I got an 890... or waited on an AM3+ board with some DDR3 and a 8-pin CPU power connector I think it would take any overclock the CPU could handle.

bro i try this bios it's can't run, i use HP tools to make bootable USB stick and when i run the exe Dos mode file it will be some kind freezing no key respond in keyboard only rest switch will be my solution, did i use wrong way or something damm i miss Gigabyte just press "end' for quick flash and chose your bios file that was very easy. :banghead:

brandonwh64 · Jan 24, 2011

go into the bios and turn on ACC

ops, thing are more simple here there is in windows flash in this file i flash my bios under windows that was easy

now this is the problem i just can't find where is the hell ACC is :mad:

Hayder_Master · Jan 25, 2011

ok im sorry im noob with new AMD systems, ok here is i guess my 4th core is dead for 720be and can't unlock it
i try the Advance clock calibration and set it at all cores= no boot or start windows and still cpu-z read three cores ans system crashes
bad luck for me

Hayder_Master · Jan 27, 2011

guys is this chip don't worm much the 720be, i use H70 and try 3.6ghz with 1.52v in cpu-z prime for 15 mints run and temps don't go over 29c.

Fatal · Jan 28, 2011

On my DFI board with my Phenom II 940 once I enabled Advance clock calibration I couldn’t get the right reading on my temperatures. Maybe that’s why you have low temperatures.

unlocking cores can make all sorts of things spaz out, temps are pretty common to go weird

mastrdrver · Jan 28, 2011

With ACC on you have to go off your cpu socket temperature as ACC uses the address space used to report core temperatures.

Also I thought I remembered reading that the maximum temperatures for AMD cpus are based off the cpu socket temperature reading and not the core temperature reading.

Few more pics, 3.9GHz 2.60v VDDA this time. Enjoy.

fullinfusion · Feb 5, 2011

hey guys I've got the multi meter out and probing PROBIT on the mobo... what is cpu-vdda voltage for?

erocker · Feb 5, 2011

CPU VDDA Voltage balances the CPU phases by providing them voltage. It will help with stability when overclocking at higher frequencies and voltage.

ok cool, Im testing 3.9ghz... voltage in the bios is set to 1.4250v meter shows 1.428v
Vdda is now @ 2.65v

with AOD stress on the cpu volts drop to 1.414v on the meter...

whats going to hold the volts solid? under load?

The cpu callabration on auto, 0% , 50% , FULL differences are if your going to clock be sure to set it to 50%
Voltage seems real real close to what you set it in the bios.

Erocker have you used the pads on your mobo with a MM to check?

It's sure opened my eyes and gives me a new perspective on things now...

GO PACKERS GO!!!
