And yes, that is a locked one. I may have to do some reasearching on this, but I think if your CPU has a 12.5 multiplier or below, even if it is locked you get all the lower multipliers and if it is 13 or higher you get the upper multipliers?
David said:My understanding was that locked = irreversibly locked at a single specific multiplier.
No, locked is locked. what you describe is a motherboard that doesn't support x8 multiplier bit (5th), thus can only control the first 4 which are either x5-x12.5 or x13 - x24, depending on the position of the 5th bit.@md0Cer said:David is quite correct I might add.

EDIT:
kixjb! I have never heard of that one before. Might be for a Thornton core, just a guess though.
