As many already know, it's possible to unlock the disabled cores on recent Phenom II processors, allowing you to get up to 4 cores working. Now, AMD has announced that it would release new microcode for motherboard BIOS updates that will disable the core-unlocking feature, preventing people from going to 4-cores if they purchased say a dual-core Phenom II. The solution is not to upgrade your motherboard's BIOS if you have a board that can unlock cores. (source: tomshardware.com)
