Unlocking AMD CPU

Posted in Uncategorized by Administrator on the April 23rd, 2010

Everyone likes to get “something for nothing” and that’s just what the new AM3+ motherboards from ASUS and ultimatepccooling.com gives AMD enthusiasts just that.

One of the reasons that CPU prices have dropped so dramatically over the past few years is because of product binning. This is a process where products such as CPUs are tested after manufacture and are assigned model numbers based on how well they perform. The best performers are assigned to work at higher speeds than those who didn’t perform as well. Not only that, but cores can be disabled in order to improve stability or to fulfill supply chain needs.
In the case of AMD, the Phenom dual and triple core CPUs are, in fact, quad-core parts which have had one or two cores disabled. Better still, some of AMD’s latest quad-core CPUs are actually six-core pieces with two cores switched off.

This is where ASUS and MSI come in. The M4-series from ASUS, and the 890GXM-G65 from MSI (both 890GX chipset motherboards) offer a core unlock feature that can allows owners to make use of these hidden cores.

Something for nothing.

Well … remember that there may well be a reason that AMD disabled a particular core. While these new motherboards can unlock the hidden cores, there’s no guarantee that things will work out right. While enthusiasts report good success with core unlocking, look at it as a free bonus, rather than as an entitlement. Remember too, that since AMD locked these cores away in the first place, that you can’t expect any support if things go wrong.

Six reasons you still need a gaming PC!

1- Cheaper games:

Upset with paying $60 for a new game? PC games get discounted much faster than their console counterparts, so savvy shoppers can often pick them up for a fraction of their original prices just a couple months after release

2 - Better Controls:

Gamepad has its place. But can you imagine playing The Sims 3 or Starcraft 2 on your TV, with no mouse or keyboard? It’s not a pretty thought — and games with complex interfaces are always going to flow better on the PC.

3 – Play the Classics:

Sure, it’s the new games that get all the headlines, but the PC has a back catalog that spans decades, and there’s no platform that does backwards compatibility better.

4 – MMOG

Despite the noble efforts of a few developers, online virtual worlds remain a PC-only affair. Whether you’re into classics like World of Warcraft or new hotness like Star Trek Online, the PC’s the only place to be, and there’s no sign of that changing any time soon.

5 – 3D

Console games are taking their first tentative steps into stereoscopic 3D, but on the PC it’s already a fully-fledged reality. Modular and infinitely upgradeable, the PC’s architecture makes it easy

6 – Overclocking

In many cases, purchase a lower performance CPU or Video Card, cheaper component and overclock it to the clock rate of a more expensive component.
