    Will decide on the proccy when I will see the successful unlocking of the 550 BE. till now I have unconfirmed reports that the DKA790GX Platinum 1.8 bios does unlock the cores.
    Lets hope Toppc gives us some good news.
    1.8 no good for unlocking. Did a quick test on 1.9b2, no coldboot issue with changing NB speed (problem similar on early beta of GD70). I will be testing for stability today, but it seems like it should be good

    But a user here has unlocked the X2 550BE and here is the link, http://www.overclock.net/amd-cpus/53...ml#post6979358
    It is the 1.8 bios, so I am wondering what went wrong with you.
    Please tell me about the cold boot? what is it I am not getting it at all.
