HMMM, would a bloomfield function in a Gainstown board if all that is different is that 1 quickpath channel is disabled or would the cpuid come into play as my guess is they have different CPUID's and the one for Bloomfield wouldn't be loaded into the Gainstown BIOS.
Am I on the right track or way off?
