Does the Phenom II x3 720BE can unlock it's fourth core with MSI 770T C45?

What does "correct bios" mean? The version I assume? Cause I googled and some people can't unlock the 4th core..

So does that mean the defective proc got warranty? =P

Haha...they knew the trick that can unlock..cut less their profits ><...but my main purpose of getting a Phenom II x3 720BE was the 4th core..can spend less 50+ bucks

I see. How much does 550BE cost then?

Is the performance better/worse than 720BE? =)

Yeah. Googled. Seem to me a lot reviews saying they will pick 550BE than 720BE cause of the higher success rate of unlocking to 4 cores. Some say they will go for 720BE because whether or not can unlock the 4th core, it's just a bonus. I'm still scratching my head because I want to buy a MSI 770T C45 which can use my old DDR2 RAMs..

Any idea the DDR2 will affect the unlock?

The 720BE is my maximum budget so far... if I could unlock the 720BE 4th core, it's a bonus. If not I will just stay for 3 cores. Those 3 cores are actually enough for gaming. I heard that if the 720BE OCed past 3.7-3.9GHz the system gets unstable..is that true?

The Phenom II x4 925 and Phenom II x4 945 is only Rm430 and Rm460 in C-Zone. Just a RM20 difference can get an extra core..not bad eh..

Edit:
ps...athlon II x4? ><

Seem to be the Phenom II x4 945 is better than Phenom II x3 720BE

Just an extend of RM50. Worth?><

Adding the RM50 would be RM1078. Should be fine I guess. Maybe the price will drop in a few months time.

1 question
can AMD Phenom II x4 955 BE oc easily to 4GHz (stable) with how many voltages? With the selected MSI 770T C45 .

Hi..I just bought a Phenom II X4 955 BE with 3.2GHz for starters..my mobo is the Gigabyte GA-MA770T-UD3P..I have downloaded the AMD Overdrive, what else do I need? Newbie here (:

I've read a few..but didn't found one about using AMD Overdrive but I've downloaded it already. Don't really know how to use. I want to push it a little further till maybe 3.8GHz. Using a Hyper 212 Plus now

Mind telling it in more english..? lol

Alright. I will test it right after I came back from my school. If I OVER-did the oc, would the system bootup? And what are the limit voltage I have to keep an eye on? 1.5V?

Also, did you mean I just play with the multiplier instead of the bus speed?

So the system wont go blow off..if it wont boot I just go back to BIOS and lower the multiplier down? (:
