I have a 2800+ Barton that I bought in late September last year (before they started to permanently lock the multiplier), but what I find quite strange is that I am not even using the wire trick and I can freely adjust the multiplier in the BIOS ( I have tried 7, 8, 9, 10, 10.5 and 11 so far, all work, confirmed by CPU-Z).
Has this happened to anyone else or was I just very lucky and got a "special" CPU? I always thought that you had to use the wire trick or it wouldn't work.
