Here's a little teaser....

meh....doubt you're going to see as much performance increase there as you think.

the reason why AMD didn't include HT3 on the Barcelona's is due to their feeling that it wouldn't increase system performance much AT ALL. now, that's the generalized opinion of a few of their engineers, so...ymmv but,, whatever.

Arghh... it cannot be set with WPCREDIT tools... The HT Link is preset from cold boot or warm boot... Anything written to Register will not take effect unless the link is disconnect LDTSTOP_L function... damn

Anyway you guys with barcelona can confirm you HT speed with this WPCREDIT tool...
The HT Link speed located at

Processor node 0 = Bus#0 Device#24 Function#0
Offset 88h (32bit access mode) LDT Link 0
Offset A8h (32bit access mode) LDT Link 1
Offset C8h (32bit access mode) LDT Link 2
Offset E8h (32bit access mode) LDT Link 3

Processor node 1 = Bus#0 Device#25 Function#0
Offset 88h (32bit access mode) LDT Link 0
Offset A8h (32bit access mode) LDT Link 1
Offset C8h (32bit access mode) LDT Link 2
Offset E8h (32bit access mode) LDT Link 3

it is 4 bit register ... Register definition on attach picture
Now You Can verified Your HT Link Speed
