Turn (Hack / modify) your Triple core AMD Phenom-II (X3) processors to Quad core AMD Phenom-II (X4) with the help of MSI motherboards
Yearly this year AMD launched its triple core (X3) Phenom-II line up. It was not long before many overclockers around the globe discovered that Phenom-II tri-core processors were actually quad-core processors, in which the fourth core was just disabled.
It was not official till MSI came up with an official news bulletin this month.
MSI now allows X3 users to enable the fourth core with a (virtual) switch under its BIOS. All Phenom-II X3 users can upgrade their CPUs to X4 given they are using a supported board and BIOS. Below is the list of given motherboards, which supports the upgrade / hack.
Infact this mod / hack /upgrade / overclock works with most of the AMD 785 / 790 chipset based board. You just need to play with the option called “Advance Core Control” under BIOS option CPU features and control.
