Check the BIOS chapter of your motherboard manual.
Some X3’s are “bad” X4’s with the bad core disabled, others are “good” X4’s with a core disabled just to satisfy the need for X3’s. Unlocking the 4th core is a bit of a crap shoot – it may be stable, it may not. You won’t know until you try.
Core Unlocker switch – This switch allows you to unlock the extra cores of your CPU.
The O2LED1 LED near the Core Unlocker switch lights when the switch setting is turned to Enable.
If you clear the CMOS or load the BIOS setup defaults, the ASUS Core Unlocker item in the BIOS menu follows the current setting of the Core Unlocker switch.
You may also press during the Power-On-Self-Test (POST) to activate the CoreUnlocker function.
The system will use the last setting you have made.
