Hi there im installing the Thuban 1055t into asrock 890gx extreme 3, i would like to know if i can lockout 2 cores so it will only use 4 core's or even 3core's and disable the rest so they are not in use, is this possible? Can the 1055t use a base clock of 3.4 Ghz, 1.35 volt vcore with boost and c state and CnQ. For a max boost speed of 3.8 Ghz.

Same here 6 cores is awsome i do alot of multimedia stuff aswell but just when it comes to game time i would like to have close performance as the 956BE or the i5 760

as the i5 760 was my first choisce until i told my mate's about it it put me off intel all together so AMD i go my last desktop was amd and my laptop is the only intel i have every had i have had too many problem with em espically HP.

All these new MB are so advanced so many settings these days, im used to working with my 10 year old comp running AMD 1GZ CPU with geforce mx400 1GB ram & 350 psu

Although, now I've read another article about it and it says it does decrease the amount that the system uses. Screw it, i'm just testing it out myself.

EDIT: So I switched msconfig to only allow 2 cores. Rebooted and Task manager only shows 2 cores. So I guess that will do the trick. I don't know if is still somehow able to use the other two cores, but my programs aren't as responsive with the other 2 disabled.
 
I don't believe that disabling the cores in windows actually disables the cores. I believe windows just can't use them.

But anyway, I've read about people getting the 1055t to 4GHz+ with a voltage increase all 6 cores and 3.6-3.8GHz on all 6 cores without a voltage increase.
Unless you have a video card setup with multiple video cards though, you will notice no increase in performance with your overclock, I believe.

Considering that the i5 750 is faster then the 1055T at gaming, I doubt you'll be able to reach your friends benchies. Not to say that the 1055T won't give you playable frame rates, just that yours won't be as fast. Disabling cores or even hitting 3.8GHz will matter. The 750/760 is just plain faster. (if his is stock you have a chance, but all he has to do is OC his and he's on top again.)

True that i guess i will have to wait until new am3 cpu arrive but still happy with the performance for the budget i was on. good heads up though.

Assuming your guys' GPUs can reach these frames, this is the gap between the i5 750 and phenom II , and x4 & x6 on a near clock4clock basis on MW2.

Notice I said 750, the i5 in the bench above is a dual core, so we are focusing on the 875k, which is similar to an i5 750 in gaming.

With a weaker GPU the CPUs will perform practically the same as eachother FYI.
