Athlon II X2 240 Unlock to Opteron 1300 Multiple 25X

[apt403]

Maybe this is the same thing that was happening with people unlocking the 710's multiplier.

http://www.ocinside.de/go_e.html?htt...ii_unlock.html try their method i guess.

I don't have a BSP setting in my BIOS, maybe that's my problem...

I guess I'll flash to the older F1 BIOS and give that a shot, and if that doesn't work, I'll try F2b.

Can anyone confirm this or replicate this? I was gonna go out and buy a 240 for budget purposes (to replace my 5000+ Black Edition), but held off. Now I think I have a good reason to. (ASRock 780G/SB710 motherboard to boot!)

any updates? is this just ecs board specific?

It also works on ASRock motherboards. But it stops working after some time and you need to play with ACC again.

Athlon II X2 245 + A780GXH/128M:





Phenom II X3 710 + M3A780GXH/128M (validation, 1M at 2,6 GHz, 1M at 3,2 GHz):

I have this ECS Ultra, but here I am having difficulty to unlock the Opteron 1300, it kept insisting several times in the BIOS to unlock and when I can, I raise the multiplier except the BIOS changes, but when the PC restarts not the video, anyone know what can be?

BTW guys all ASRock boards are manufactured by ECS...part of the ASUS/ECS spinoff rumo(u)r...
it seems ECS made boards are the only ones allowing this?

[Smartidiot89]

So only ECS boards can do this? I have an Athlon II x2 245 next to me for reviewing on my motherboard in signature, can I unlock the multiplier?

Here emphasis must be given to unlock a friend with an Asus M4A785 not unlock the X2 gave him 240.

Some CPU's starts acting strange after unlocking (i.e. my Athlon II X2 245 can't boot windows even on 800 MHz).
After all unlocking works only for short time, so it's not a big deal IMO.

Could we get some pictures of the original cpu psn in cpu-z and possible a picture of the ihs very interesting
