Great chip to give new life to older systems: still relevant in 2018.
Unlocked to 6cores, though unable to OC past 3.5ghz on all - stable. I think it has to do with heat issues and or PSU giving out when under stress/load for longer periods. Not to mention my setup was originally intended for HTPC so the rest of components aren't exactly high grade.
Stock 4core OC to 3.7ghz easily without voltage, anything higher for me and temps cause throttling or shutdown. I leave it stock with turbo OC because I'm more careful of power consumption...
This was a great buy for me in 2018 to game at 1920x1200 with a mix of high-low settings on non AAA titles, regular net surfing and MPC-HC + MadVR.
