Hello,

I've just unlocked all 4 cores on my new 555 (I had to increase voltage and HT Threading to 1,6). However I seem to only be able to boot if I disable the last core, even though I tried increasing the voltage to over 1,5.

I am fully aware that the core might actually be dead, but I'd like to try everything possible before I give up on it.

I could only unlock the cores after I set HT threading to 1,6, would it be bad if I set it any higher?

I would like some suggestions please.

Thank you,
Neagu.

I just noticed that the core temp isn't showing at all. Any suggestion how to fix this please?

Lock your cores again. This is a byproduct of unlocking. If you have a decent mobo it should report CPU temp.
