Choosing 2500+ xp

[tenga2]

i'm thinkin of buying a xp 2500+. i heard that the barton cores are all factory locked. So all the tricks on the web ( pencil, conductive grease etc ) do any of them work if the cpu is locked???

i currently have a 1900+, how well do they overclock???

thanks

1900+, find out if it's palomino, TbredA or B.

you need an unlocking kit, the bridges are laser cut now.

TbredA 1700+ can hit 2600+ stable, 13x166, i did that on a friend's PC.

Buy a Mobile Barton, they are all unlocked and will overclock as much or better than normal Barton. Mobile Barton are the BEST Barton.
