1055T X6 Overclocking

These are my BIOS settings: CPU Multiplier frequency xxx, Memory Clock x3.33 (to compensate for the change in FSB to give 1066MHz) - Award BIOS with MIT on a Gigabyte GA-MA78LM-S2H

A full set of instructions and screen-shots of the BIOS screens can be found the Tempusfugit Intranet

Many forums claim that they have instructions on how to do this but turn out to be general instructions on how a Black Edition BE CPU is overclocked, the AMD Phenom X6 1055T (Thuban) is NOT BE. Other reviews on retail websites (Tiger Direct) are in a similar vein where the reviews are claiming core speeds of over 4GHz - it has not been the first time that reviewers haven't even purchased the product and are posting either to confuse or they are just making an extension from another product that they have purchased and the specs of the X6. It has not been the first time that reviews of this nature have been seen on TD.
