The trick with AMD CPUs that unlock (IMO) is to buy them at launch. You have a better chance that they've locked the cores in order to meet demand, not because they're unstable, that way. My two cents anyway.

Normally that may be true,however I'm wondering if AMD is holding out on selling 1100T's because they are faster than FX?
