for your X3 710, did the multipliers unlock as well?
Nope. Have others reported this?
I found this:

When I get home I'll see if the Biostar TA790GX A2+ has a similar option. We'll see. I'm pretty happy running 250x13 = 3250mhz with all 4 cores Prime stable though. I can tell I'm hitting an FSB (or HT I guess it is now) wall, because it doesn't like to boot at 255mhz+. I could bump the volts to the NB, but the cooling is sketchy at best. This little proc is amazing. Its running cooler unlocked at 3.25ghz under my HR-01 Plus than my Phenom II 940 at stock.
Isnt the X2 550 already multiplier unlocked anyway?
Just making sure... One more question, would the Asrock 790GX have any disadvantages compared to the Gigabyte 790GX? Why is it priced lower?
Phenom II 720 with GA-MA770T-UD3P F2C
4th core unlocked with no issue at stock voltage. Ran fine in Vista 64 but under load from FSX and ARMA 2 it had issues.
Dropped it back to 3 and will overclock once my mosfet cooler gets here.
Stock volts are still at "tri-core volts" when you unlock. You need to increase the volts in order to run the X4 stable.
