I have tried adjusting CPU-NB and HT Link speeds up and down, adjusted voltage and right tried moving from auto acc to manual with default -2%, 0% and even +2%.
Highest I have gotten with AOD clocking the dual core was 4GHz.

Can i ask for...... benches as well as power consumption data.:yepp:
Try setting ACC to +4, see if you can boot up, mine unlocks but this bios is buggy, run 3dmark06 as quad @3.8 scored in the 19800 ish, then other times I couldnt get the system to boot, just waiting on a newer bios to come out.Quote:

sounds like a plan, how much they want for it?...just don't tell her I said to do it...:p:Quote:

Will upgrade tback to 1602 and try +4 on that as well. I have vantage not 06 key, and that crashes with affinity error after 2nd test. (I assume first CPU test?)
If +4 does not fix it, than I will do what I bought this for, to try and get my aircooled 920 past 3700 3d stable :)
And as an aside, do what the 550 was bought for, a nice multiplier unlocked CPU for my foxconn a79a-s (of course I will try unlocking on that too).
I could just have a dud week 21 chip, but hey, it is the first amd dual core that got me to 4GHz, so I am not complaining AT ALL.
(Only found out about unlocking after I bought it :))
It is wierd that I could pass 3 hours of small FFTs at 3600MHz quad core p95. But blend messes it up. That should point me to what the problem is but since everything works otherwise... I cant be sure. L1/L2 cache issues on other 2 cores?
EDIT
Holy crap!!!
Cleared futuremark cache and am running through CPU tests now!!!
Will have to try Blend stress next I guess. :) IF it fails I will check out HW monitor to check temps (been finger testing for now) IF it reads over 30 I will try out the tuniq tower I modded for my 920 (bolt through kit and increased fans (HS yate and panaflo)
woo hoo!
An aside... ACC does not give me a per core option for some reason in bios... I mean I can set all cores and bios does not present an option to set it... maybe the bios flash did something... FxFxFx
No luck. Large and blend still pose problems.
As Dr Beckett would say "Ah Well, we gaive it a gud ruun, it'll make uh gud bennnch macheen"
(running 3800 at 1.35vcore right now :) )
With Unleashing mode enabled, core temp show 0 celcius in windows, but i can passed occt, any explanation ?

Yes, you have to use HWmonitor.Quote:

EDIT WOW
Lot of volts there though. I dont think I used that many to get to 4GHz with all 4...
M4A78T-E (BIOS: 1304)
I can't find this version anywhere. Is it a typo? Do I need 1303?
Must be a typo. Someone before was talking about 1503 before (and there is not one of them either)Quote:

All settings are set to Auto with Unleashing Mode Enabled. The board i am currently using is M4A78T-E. The mobo does not show any problems if Unleashing Mode is disabled.
Me too, I have try all bios from Asus Website :shrug:Quote:

Unleashing mode works much better now (always unlocks on coldboot)
There is also a new option to select if you want to activate all 4 or just 3 Cores if unlocking the Phenom II X2 550. You can even choose which cores to be used in "X3" mode (cores 0,1,2 or 0,1,3)
Even STR works now with unleahing enabled.
Still can't get my Phenom II X2 550 stable as X4, but works fine as X3 with 0,1,2 and 0,1,3 so it doesn't seem to be a cpu problem...
m4a78t-e users, seems bios 1703 have solve the hypertransport flood issue, now on my 1st boot i dont get the error anymore ;)
yes! it has been fixed! it is gratifying to know that i did not have to replace the motherboard!
What about M3A79-T DeLuxe?
Any Unlocking core BIOS success
Thanks
Just bumping this, has anyone had luck in making the 4th core stable?
yupp,mine is stable with M3A78-T& bios 1403 occt stable 3.2 @1.35 v
HI everyone..
