Got one of these from a buddy, and on his asus board it showed multipliers up to 65, but you could only access to 44. Would this even be worth tossing in my system now (water cold X5690) so I could try to by pass the BLOCK wall I have to see and bench it at tghz (hopefully), OR just turn it into a key chain/sell It?
 
sell it, that's a 4c/8t chip it not worth the hassle..
 
Was leaning that way, but have never had the chance to play with a confidential chip before lol.
 
Eh, i'd say keep it, just to play with it. Some people still use them as daily drivers and are satisfied, a CPU just tro tinker with is a nice excuse :p

Plus, with it being 4c, i doubt you'd fetch much on ebay.
