upgrade from asrock 790 to 970 will core unlock work the same?

[Breadbin]

hi all, i have a phenom 2 dual core 555 and with the asrock 790gx pro it unlocks all cores ok giving me a quad core. i dont want to upgrade but there is another issue with the board and was looking at getting a new board that will unlock so i thought the best bet would be the 970 extreme which has the same ucc software on it. will it work similar or is there really no guarantee?

Hi, if you want to stay with ASrock i would recommend the 970 Extreme4 it does support UCC feature (Unlock CPU Core) but unfortunately there are no guarantees.

well i dont want to stay with asrock, far from it because the southbridge is broken on this one but i reckon it is best chance of unlocking all the cores seeing as they unlock with the current asrock. i was thinking asus sabretooth just for reliability but price is an issue
