    Also, I'm not sure the X2 255 belongs in the Thuban chart.

    Able to unlock Athlon II X3 440 to Deneb core Phenom II x4 B40. No L3 cash though. Interesting enough the voltage automatically went up to 1.472V which on stock cooler raised the temperature up to 46-48C idling. Lowered to 1.275V (not stable at 1.25V), idles at 37-39C, does not go over 50C on load. Wonder how much the power consumption increased from 95W for 3 cores when unlocking the 4th core.
    Anyways, it's a good marketing strategy for AMD to release unlock-able processors, which can additionally overclock. Hooks you up.
