Aside from the unlocked multiplier, the Phenom 9600 Black Edition is identical to the plain vanilla Phenom 9600. It runs at a default clock speed of 2.3 GHz. So far, AMD has made no other changes to the Phenom.

I think on page 14 the author meant:
"When Cool'n'Quiet is deactivated, idle power consumption rises to 51 watts. The jump in power consumption at 2.70 GHz is a direct result of the core voltage increase from 1.250 V to 1.400 V."
And the bars for Phenom 9600 BE and Phenom 9600 BE (CnC) should be switched around.
I think it's also important to mention the fact that Vista SP1 includes it's OWN TLB fix which overrides the bios setting of many boards. I used an app that works in conjunction with Crystal CPUID to change the MSR directly to deactivate this secondary TLB fix. It caused a dramatic improvement in performance; the quick and simple WinRAR bench went from 232 to ~1300 after the fix. Just think it's worth mentioning!
