But, yea, maybe I jumped the gun a little. At 0500 I still hadn't had my first cup.
A quirk of the Phenom II?
*goes off to find more Deneb CPU-Z posts*


Yep - Phenom II quirk ...

No.

CPU-Z validator which generates the static image has only rated FSB, however the actual CPU-Z client has HT Link for AMD AM2 processors. That Chiphell screenshot shows the CPU-Z client, which shows Rated FSB instead of HT Link - what it should show.

That could mean that the pic was taken with Intel CPU and then just shopped it as a Deneb CPU-Z screenie. Most certainly a fake, considering that vCore is lower than 1.9 V
and Sampsa & others claim/were told that 1.95 V is needed for 6 GHz.
