    AMD banned ACC core unlocking on all 7 series chipsets too. Remember a short while after people discovered core unlocking, AMD notified all board makers to release a BIOS update to disable the functionality? Then what happened? One board maker (Biostar) ignored their demands and soon every other mobo maker followed.

    If Asus can do this, this means the functionality is still in the southbridge, and that means it's only a matter of time before every board maker has the functionality implemented again.
    Formerly XIP, now just P.

    Multiple firmware modes are awesome
    I also noticed today gigabytes new updated easy tune 6 has "core boost technology" Didn't look into it much as I was using a quad at the time, but it says it enables the power of hidden cores on your cpu So the lack off acc on the GB890 reviews we have been seeing aren't a lack of capability, its just been moved to the software side Cool eh!
    My pot is bigger than your pot

    WHAU!!!!

    sadly people think that ASUS has pulled this out of the thin air with just a magic flip of the switch!

    Can someone explain to me how did Obermeister regain such credibility so that everyone unquestionable believe him??
    Adobe is working on Flash Player support for 64-bit platforms as part of our ongoing commitment to the cross-platform compatibility of Flash Player. We expect to provide native support for 64-bit platforms in an upcoming release of Flash Player following the release of Flash Player 10.1.

    He didn't. His history shows empirical lying for the purposes of gaining atention.

    Any time he gained a legit source of information, he would whore out on it as much as he could. Regardless of the subject matter.

    You can see this by his second post in this thread. First by proclaiming himself as god and secondly by stating no one should care about AMD's chipsets ...after creating the thread on the subject.

    The boy is a troll and a child.
