Your probably right about the bios issue, since our chips are so close, even down to the serial number...

I've only been playing with it for an hour or so, but so far I'm pretty impressed! I've still got alot of tweaking to do, but it sure seems like it's going to be stable as a Quad...

No serious stress testing yet, but so far so good as far as my preliminary testing goes. One thing I always watch is WPrime, from my experience, if the cores stay in sequence (or at least close) during the benchmark thats a good sign your going to be able to get it stable. This puppy went 1234,1234,1234,1234...

Heres a SS:



I had to give it a little Vcore, but not nearly as much as the 940 or the 720, and the temps still seem to be decent (of course it's just a guess on an unlocked chip )...

So far I'm a Happy Camper!! This may very well be my new "Best Ever Chip"...

Week 22's are fairly recent, but if these are the duds that weren't good enough to be 965's it gives me hope for AMD's process improvements.
