Hey, first attempt at OCing/Unlocking w/ new gen AMD cpus...
mobo: GA-MA78LM-S2 (rev. 1.0), latest bios update
cpu: Athlon II x3 440
ram: 2x1gb Corsair XMS
PSU: Antec 550 earth watts
In the bios I change the settings to unlock whatever will unlock, ( 4th core/L3 cache)
leave everything else at stock.
reboot and it shows up on post as Phenom x4
cpu Id shows Phenom x4 and Denab, 4th core shows up
run CPU stability for just shy of an hour no problems, ran 3d Mark Vantage, completed...
everything seems fine...
but, I go to a web page and all pics are pixilated.
restore bios to defaults and everything is fine.
I've googled it several times and find nothing.. I'm sure I'm not wording it right in my search...
any thoughts??
thanks, finkle
