Update: I got 3 cores active and stable, the same applies though. I have core #0 Locked Active,#1 Disabled, #3 & #4 active. I can still take my choice of which cores I want to use, stable with any core I choose. Just not all 4 at the same time. I suppose Im at the point now, where maybe I should just be happy with an X3.
Hey guys,
I have a phenom 550 and Im trying to get the cores stable on a Biostar A770E3. I should say, the cores are stable, but only when I have any 2 active. I say any 2 meaning that I can have cores 0 and 4, 0 and 3, 0 and 2, and 0 and 1 all stable as long as there are only 2 active.
The processor shows up in windows as X4 even tho 2 cores need to be disabled. It reads 160W and as a Deneb.Ive OCCT'd the heck out of all for cores running with core #0, but when I try for 3 or 4 cores active, freeze at windows every time.
I cant get into much of my overclocking settings when the cores are unlocked or it wont post, but Im running my CPU voltage @ 1.45v and the CPU Northbridge is also OCd to 1.2v. I have access to chip voltage, and memory voltage as well, but not my multiplier or it wont post.
Any thoughts?
