Budgetstar ta790gx a3+
Bios version 78daa420

just got my psu back. so, i've done stress test on my unlock BE 555. result is as below. everything is on default setting. i wonder why the vcore is 1.376V. its supposed to be 1.35V (default value) rite?

it depends on the mobo, probably auto for the board is 1.376V

really? hmm, have to set it manually then. mind to tell me what is ur vcore & temp running @ 3.6GHz? what software u use to monitor the temp?

Hi guys,its been a while since i sold my X2 3800 F3 gem.
So, i have quit overclocking since 2 years ago.
Now i thought of playing it back.

But kind of noob since so many new things came up.

I want to ask,what is the different between :

1- Athlon II & Phenom II?
2- Does both of them are able to be unlocked?
3- Lastly,which one is better for me to buy,is it the Athlon II X2 or Phenom II X2 to be unlocked.

Cheers guys.

@ocz
1: athlonII dont have l3 cache
2: yes if they have locked cores that quite healthy
3: athlonII x2 is regor chip..cant unlock at all.. x3 might be deneb, or propus..can be unlock..

@azilazwa
use hwmonitor tmpin..but giga famous for the not so accurate cpu temp.. keke..

U forgetting something bro, our resident unker tua ah_khoo has stressed the point that after playing with both athlon II & phenom II, if ur looking for better oc milage go for the phenom II..
U won't be able to go higher with the regor/propus etc core..

kekeke..tamaw bg taw since he not asking about OC..just unlock..kekeke
yeah..most propus n regor almost reach limit around 3.7 on air..right?

LOL i misread his question Yups, propus & regor mostly can reach limit around that, it doesn't help having lower multi either..
Want high HTT oc need to use great mobo chipset like 790FX or 890FX plak

laa... korang kutuk unker yer... metang2 unker xde pc bleh oc skarang...

undoubtedly deneb offers better mileage, regor would be d 2nd favorite while propus bein d least. but for someone who likes challenges, propus could really gives more fun.

no 960t to unlock, sigh... it's gonna be a long wait for x6 to drop price or someone sell it @ 555be price...

want efficiency get FX instead of GX

Want hear fudzilla news?

AMD Phenom II X4 960T not cancelled


Should be available, eventually

According to our info, AMD's Thuban based Phenom II X4 960T is not canceled but rather just delayed. Unfortunately, our sources were not clear about the specific date but were pretty sure that it will come eventually.

As you may remember, Legitreviews.com reported yesterday that the "unlocking-friendly" Phenom II X4 960T will be limited to OEMs and probably paired up with a non-unlockable motherboard. Our sources suggested that it is a mere delay and that the noted CPU will indeed be available.

We are not sure if AMD will change something and make it less "unlockable" in that process, or when it will actually be available, but for now, we are hearing that it will be available in retail, sooner or later.

lol if not sure then..
same like rumors.. release or not to be released..
ppl not bothering the gimmick..

Lol..thats why give some suspense first..Its FUD anyway..
We will just wait and see

after so long waiting to oc my proc, finally i manage to do it tonite. just increasing the multi tho.



It seems that my mobo set the default vcore @ 1.375V. I didnt change it, just increasing the multi and change HT link to 1800MHz. wanna try 3.8GHz after this. hehe

Edit:

Oh snap. I open 3 cpuZ n it shows same page.

hi everyone, i would like to know which core temp monitor software can read my current rig cpu temp? i tried core temp and real temp, ntg works. u guys' answers r appreciated. thx

After unlocking, you only able to monitor CPU temp not Core temp.

-pWs-

We all just use hardware monitor to monitor unlocked cpu's.. Just refer to the tmpin0, tmpin1 & tmpin2..
To know which one is which just do a little experiment by running ur cpu at its normal setting (cores not unlock) and see which temp reading is similar to the cpu temp reading

which software to use to monitor cpu temp?
