Any one have an asus M4A78T mobo and and 0906 720be and able to get the 4th core unlocked from everything I have read it should unlock rather it will be stable is another thing altogether. I set acc to auto and I was told I would get an option to unlock the 4th core after that every where else just say's to set acc to auto. I have tried bios #'s 0801 1104 1303 1503 and I'am trying 1201 now someone suggested I try the earlier bios's.
Any help would be appreciated. I also have a 720be with a 0904 date but that is going into another system.

I hear what you're saying and I agree that it's not the optimal fan positioning for my cpu. My reasoning for the fan layout is that my cpu isn't the hottest component in the case: my gpu is. The way I have the fans now, my graphics card dropped almost twenty degrees under load.

As it stands, my cpu is 53c under load (and I figure my cores are 45-47c), and I'm not planning on cranking the oc any more as 3.5ghz seems to be the sweet spot for my chip - I revved it up to 3.7ghz and couldn't get it stable with 1.475v, so I'll leave it.

Is your picture/case flipped??? Judging by the picture it is, but then you have that fan on the top (bottom??) so it doesn't look like you could sit it right side up...
