Ok guys here are some of the first overclock + unlock results.
http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=1026864
just +200 MHz for now.
Sisoftsandra is the only Benchmark that i have ready.
it ran stable. an i was able to complete the processor arithmatic and Multi-Media benchmarks.
Results are

so what do you theink?
in comparison tables it is nearly same as Phenom II 965 BE at stocks.
and way better then 955 or Athlon 640.
but it falls short of Core i5 750.
sadly the CPU does not show any temps while in Quad core mode. so i am not going to trash it to its limits and i am going to stop the tests at 3.4 GHz. for now. i will see later on with a better cooler.
i am going to test dual core limits now.
if any one else has bought the CPU please post your results here will u?
i will try to post the model no. so it can help u guys decide.
Ps: also i lowered the voltage to
1.328v. i will try lower now.
