After reading everyone's experiences, i bought a phenom II x3 720BE C2 stepping, flashed with the slic bios, reset the cmos, and it booted with the processor recognized. Bios is misreporting memory and fsb, but cpu-z and windows report correctly, along with all cores showing. CNQ doesn't work(but PhenomMSRTweaker does). Cannot set multiplier in bios and I am having sleep and shutdown issues. Other than that, it rips. Way faster than the X2 5000BE that it replaced which I always ran at 3ghz. Thank you to all who did the research and gave great instructions, made the job easy. If you have any ideas on shutdown and sleep let me know!

Success!!

Foxconn C51XEM2AA updated successfully!

at first it seemed nothing had changed. but then when I checked the boot order then i saw it was different.

also spotted some new settings such as:

AMD C1E Fuction: [DISABLED]

and a few others. Bah stingy Foxconn. Anyhows thanks guys! when I get my next pay day, then donations for you!

Such a happy chappy!

now to steal the phenom off me mate who's not been using it for 5 months since he went i7. Man this speaks louder than words.

I've been running a X4 955 BE on my 590 sli for a few months now, the processor and flashed bios (681W1P36) work very well.
I'm having a strange issue with adding RAM and I know this is 'biosmods.com'... but is anyone feeling helpful ?

Hello everyone.

I know this is an old thread but Im just throwing this out there :-)

I have the EVGA NF59 board and I was running a Athlon X2 6000+.

Iv since flashed 612W2P36_Updated_Roms.bin as I picked up a Phenom II X4 940 Black Edition on the cheap. It works which is great and its a big step up from the X2 but as it is a Black Edition I was wondering if anyone had any ideas about unlocking the multiplier?

Overclocking just the bus I can get 3.4/3.5GHz but its temperamental.

All help greatly appreciated.
