Hi all,

I have a question about Phenom II X2 555BE unlock...

If after I have successful unlocked the processor using a mainboard that supports core unlock and turn it into 4 cores, can I move the processor to a non-unlockable AM3 mainboard? Will it be usable & running on 4 cores?

Thanks for the answer.

It will be usable and remain as a dual core processor on the non-unlockable AM3 motherboard.

to unlock cores, you need motherboard that have unlock cores option.
non-unlockable AM3 motherboard only support Default cores.

in your case, Phenom II 555BE default cores is 2.

^true .. the 555 default core is 2..only mobo wit unlock core (ucc) can do the job

Thats is considered as overclocking and its unlocked data is saved to the mainboard's CMOS.If you move to a unlockable board,it remains 2 core while it uses different CMOS

Mobo can unlock the other two disabled core by manufacturer? Its so amazing.

haha, yes, with some feature in bios or a hardware button.

Oh like that la... If unlocked the core, will the working temperature rise?

hmm, for my case, the temperature just nice.
but ofcourse i m using different chips.
