on certain athlon II x4 620's an extra 6 megs of l3 cache can be unlocked because they are actually deneb based cores (phenom II) using the nvidia core control option in my bios allows me to enable this cache and as well adds stability to my overclock. also when used on the per core setting set to 8% or 10% my cpu voltage jumps back up to where it has virtually no extra heat and no vdrop i think with a different motherboard (785 chipset) i could push this thing further at certain speeds it actually ran cooler overclocked than at stock
