    How to unlock the extra cores for AMD Phenom II X2 555 BLACK EDITION

    Would be much appreciated if anyone could show me how to unlock the extra cores of AMD Phenom II X2 555 BLACK EDITION using a Gigabyte GA-970A-D3 motherboard. Do you need to get a special CPU cooler like the Zalman CNPS10X Extreme rather than the stock standard cooler ? Thanks.

    Phenom II x4 965 vs Athlon II x3 455

    If I take a Athlon II X3 455 3.3ghz and unlock it into a quadcore how would it perform vs a Phenom II X4 965 3.4ghz? No overclocking taken into account. Im indecisive between these two. I need it to run 4gigs of DDR3 1600mhz and a HD6850.
