Default Strangeness.. ASUS M4A78T-E "unlocks" AMD Phenom II X2 to X4??


The circuitry is all there, but they disable it? I know that some
circuit boards have uninstalled component locations, but all of
the stuff is there and disabled?


AMD must have a good reason to not sell them as 4-core CPUs. Any one
knew why? Is it a secret?
