and

My question is, would i be able to unlock the other core with this board and is it a good cpu to overclock?

Thank you

i'm pretty sure that motherboard does not feature core unlocking, as for overclocking, think you might be able to get 3.5Ghz out of that processor at least? depends on your cooling and how good the chip is

 

[djshauny1]

Oh crap lol

My mate of mine said it would lol.

It is compatible with that board right?

lol

 

[SeraphX]

slap your mate lol

yes the chip will work fine with that board

 

[djshauny1]

slap your mate lol

[djshauny1]

might be a silly question for you guys, but im a learner so here it goes

Is there anyway of unlocking cores in windows or is it bios only

 

[Sgt Tackleberry]

Bios only and if there was to do it in window I would still say do it in bios...

SLAP your friend with a WET FISH

 

[djshauny1]

LOL

Also guys, does that board support this

if so ill upgrade in a month or so

 

[SeraphX]

yes it does but TBH you've got a x3 already and going to buy an x6? bulldozer comes out next month ( or the end of this month ) you'd be better off saving your money for that

 

[djshauny1]
