amd cpu

[vict0r]

hi all...

my last upgrade was around oktober last year (am running an e8400,4 gigs on an asus rampage x48)

I have'nt been on here since...my question is, hows AMD going? I bean reading about "unlocking the extra 2 cores" ... ain't their locked for a reason?

thanks

Yeah, but they don't know that all the cores in that batch is bad, so people unlock and try...
It's kinda like what they did with the older video cards, unlocking the shaders, some where good, some not so good..
