Has anybody tried AMD Phenom X4 9950?

9950BE? Yes, but please read on

2010-01-28 22:39:00
Posted by: Chris

I am running a phenom 9950BE on my m2n-mx se plus. It has no problems, although it seems to only run at 1.3GHz (multiplier is halved) :fou: . My proc has the same TDP as the 9850, but despite my best efforts, I cannot figure out why it runs in low power mode all the time. The CPU temp is between 42 and 45 Celcius under load, so I do not believe it is overheating.
For the record, cool n quiet is disabled in the BIOS and all power savings are turned off in the OS. This has been verified in windows 7 Pro and ubuntu 9.10, both are the 32 bit versions of each. The motherboard is running the latest BIOS as of this posting. All of the other hardware tests out and at one point or another, was changed out just incase it was causing issues. My recommendation would be to spring for a higher end motherboard to go with that processor. CPU heavy tasks such as video encoding or gaming are noticibly slower than they should be. I wish I had purchased a higher end motherboard, but at the time, this was all I could afford (I already owned the processor) and I was desperate for a computer.
Other system specs:
2GB PC5300
Geforce 7950GT
550W Coolmax PSU
250GB WD SATA
CNPS-9700cu Heatsink


So, to answer your question--yes, it does work. Do I recommend doing it? No.

Posted by: Chris

UPDATE: I had to manually set the multiplier to the correct value (13x) in order for Ubuntu to run it at the correct speed, but Windows 7 still ran it at half speed. In fact, my WEI score dropped from a 5.9 to 5.1.
Therefore, Ubuntu>Windows

I sink that we can run the Athlon II X2 Regor with 1066mhz ,because it work in M2N-E in 800mhz, and this mother is more old than ASUS M2N-MX SE Plus.

I am running the Athlon II X4 630 quad core processor on this motherboard with bios v503. The processor is not recognized in the bios but runs correctly as I have checked it in cpuz and is running at 2.8Ghz. Windows 7 performance rating for cpu is 7.4 (out of a possible 7.9)

It works!

Posted by: djv

Hey, do you know if AMD Athlon X2 7750 is working properly on this mother board (AT full speed, Full HT and MT/s?)?
I need CPU that could use my 2GB DDR2 1066MHz Non-ECC CL5 5-5-5-15 at full 1066Mhz, not 800MHz, like it is now with Athlon 64 3800+. Any suggestions? AMD Athlon X2 7750 or 7550 is cheap enough for me to upgrade my old PC.

P.S.: My bios is 0503v. and as i see there is no need to update to 0602v. because no new cpu was added to this bios version. Am i right?

wheres your source of info ??

I like your website. Really useful. Thanks.
Its great to read what people have got working, and what not.
But i'd like to know why your list of campatible CPU's is longer than the 'offical' list on the manufacturers website???

specifically, can i really get a phenom x4 9850 to work, when asus says max 9450 ?
thanks.
