cool then were all happy.
just tried to o/c to 150/150......not good. something didnt like.
think i'll enjoy it at stock for a while.

Have you checked to see if you make multiplier changes yet diddydo ?

 

[diddydo75]

no not yet. i cant change the multiplier from within the bios on my mobo. anyway it doesnt even show what the multiplier is!it did show the multiplier when i had my thunderbird in so im assuming the 2200 is somehow locked by AMD before shipment?

just checked it out with gpcuid and it is a barton. that means it supports sse aswell. dont think the thoroughbreds do?

It's a THORTON

Have a look Thorton

 

[diddydo75]

yep i know,was just checking another thread a moment ago,
its totally locked. fsb is the only way to go.
when i said barton, i meant thats what it was identified as by gcpuid. i know it has half of the cache disabled making it a THORTON.

With the motherboard your running, I don't think you'll be able to check if it is locked or not b/c I don't think that motherboard will allow multiplier change. Try doing a pin mod, if that doesnt work it is probably locked.

 

[diddydo75]

thanks hellfire your right.
dont think i'll try the pin mod though....not yet anyway!
