AQZFA 0347 XPMW

I thought after week 39 they were locked?
maybe i'm confused, however i've ran at 227*11, 10*227, and 11.5*200, and 9*230, Is this normal? I even ran at 166*13. Am I confused or just lucky.


BTW I'm having issues past 227 I've heard that maybe its my bios, what version should I try? I'm running my vcore as high as 1.8 and my chipset voltage at 1.7 and ram at 2.7? Which should I continue to progress with?

At idle and at 2476 i'm at 36c

OMG I hope they unlocked them again:p

[Kenshiro]

man, what the heck is wrong with you????? Why are you complaining???? LOL

Congratulations that you got an unlock Barton. Try pushing is as far as it can go and keep us posted.

[RedDawg41]

is it possible for you to take a pic of your proc for the rest of us to see it?

[alibubba]

my chip was 0350 and it's locked. talk about being lucky :)

[Mr.Rotory]

yea let me get the camera

[RedDawg41]

if possible, try to get a close up shot of the L1, L2 or anything that says "L" on it... these guys here can tell if there's a shift in the traces on that cpu.

[Mr.Rotory]

well its not a OEM chip, I bought it from newegg and its retail in box

[Dermen]

I bought a AQZFA 0347 from newegg a few weeks ago. I didn't even bother to test if it was unlocked. I will go test now, if it is, I love you.

EDIT
It was locked:(

Off Topic: rotarys are sweet.

[Mr.Rotory]

Hey all, I just installed my new Barton 2500+ week 47 also. I went into my bios settings (Abit NF7-S r2.0, non-updated bios) and I am allowed to change the multiplier setting. Correct me if im wrong, but if its locked it wouldnt let you change the mult setting correct? Anyways, am I another lucky one?

[Sir Barton]

i need to get one of these new unlocked bartons, but i dont want to take the crapshoot.

Locked week 41 here :(

Mine is locked and I can still change the multi in bios. But it won't post. I then have to shut off the ps for a minute and hold insert to get into bios to get it back to 11.

I just got a barton 2500+ week 47 PQZFA and it is locked. I kept my AQYFA week 43 chip as I can over clock that one better too. ('course that might be because I didn't have enough time to do a 48 hour burn in with the newer Barton).
