AMD Phenom II X2 555 Unlocked!!

Have you heard about unlocking processor cores yet? 
I use AMD Phenom II X2 555 3,2 GHz type of processor on my computer. And now, I have unlocked that processor to AMD Phenom II X4 B55 3,6 GHz Processor.
I will tell you how to unlock that processor. This guide will change your bios settings, and every type of mainboard have different setting and bios setup menu. So, before that I tell you that I using MSI 785GTM-E45 mainboard. You should adjust your own mainboard settings.

There are few steps to do it
  • restart the computer and press F1 or DEL (it's depend on your mainboard) to open the bios setup menu. Then select "Cell Menu" "Note:that menu may be different for each mainboard, if you using other than MSI 785GTM-E45 you should choose menu that controling the Processor, RAM,etc like Core Speed, VCore, etc."
  • after that search for "Unlock CPU Core" and Enable it. Then select "Advanced Clock Calibration" and fill with "All Cores", on "Value (All Cores)" fill with "-2%". This number may be different for each settings because each processor even the same type have different potency and frequency. Then Save and Exit setup.
  • Then enter windows and run DXDIAG
  • Now see you computer spec on the diagnostic, you will see your processor is AMD Phenom II X4 B55, not AMD Phenom II X2 555.
  • May be this settings is unstable when you using your computer, but you can stabilize the setting on your bios. You should adjust "VCore" value and "CPU Frequency"
My computer settings
  • AMD Cool 'n' Quiet : Disable
  • CPU Freq : 200MHz
  • CPU Ratio : x18
  • CPU-NB Ratio : x12
  • Unlock CPU core : Enable
  • Advanced Clock Calibration : All Cores
  • Value(All Cores) : -2%
  • FSB/DRAM Ratio : 1:2
  • HT Link Speed : x12
  • VCore/CPU Voltage : 1.359
  • DRAM Voltage : 1.80
  • NB Voltage :1.200
  • Other settings is default
When I check my computer with CPUID will look like this


Now my dual core processor turned to quad core processor that have much better performance than before :)

Gaming Faster with Game Booster

If our computer specifications is less than the requirements of a game, it would cause the game that we play will seem slow. this is because computers do other tasks besides running the game. That another task is programs that run automatically when computer starts. 
This problem can be solved using “Game Booster” software. This software can disable the programs or services that may be disturbing when playing games. This software is free and can be downloaded here. How to use it is easy. Just install the game booster like normal installation. After the installation progress is done, open the program and a new window will showed like this

You will see there are many unnecessary programs that running on your computer. That program can cause garbage when running game or other application. But don't worry, this program can shuting down all of them, it can defrag the game directory too, so the game will run faster after that. 

How to Use it?
 If you want to play games faster, just click “switch to gaming mode!”. Then select services that will be turned off (like anti virus, or etc). After that all unnecessary background processes and services that selected will be shutted down. It will release an amount of RAM so the game will run faster.

“Note : I have tried this program and my computer memory space is increased by 55 MB after running this program.“ Don’t be afraid, that unnecessary background processes and services can be restored again later. If you want to restore the background program open the game booster then click “back to normal mode”
This program can used to defraging your game files too. If you want to defrag the game directory, just click game defrag on the tabs of the program. Then the window will be like this.


Then select game or program that will be analyzed and it will show how many files that can be fragmented.
It is easy right??


I hope this can be a useful information for all.
