New Info From Ocworkbench!
AMD Phenom X4 can do 3GHz and above
Quote:
By normal air cool, the AMD Phenom X4 can go beyond the 3GHz mark by overclocking. Although this can be done, there are some stability issues at such high speed.
Currently, there aren't any options to turn off one or two of the cores. Running it in single channel memory helps to stabilise it.

Bluetooth is one of those guys who is credible and who got the one of the 1st GA RD790 mobos to test.So this is very good news coming from them!
Note he says air cooling is used and it's a X4 ,so all of the cores must work at the same clock since something is wrong(bios?) and they can't use separate PLLs to clock the cores individually.
And a note to Donnie27 and others going OT in this thread ,for the Nth time:
"Please post something that has to do with Phenom or get out from this news thread!"
We don't need trolling about 4x4 here Donnie.You take your views to separate thread in general hardware and discuss till there is no tomorrow,ok?Or you are afraid it will go down the tubes like the one topic you tried to post recently:"4x4 vs V8"?That was a funny thread,with wrong title,wrong link and wrong posts :p:
