Wasn't this just a CPU that is misprogrammed and detected as FX-24?

If so, it doesn't really deserve its own category as a simple BIOS modification on those platforms can give you any desired output (but won't change CPU specs, obviously).

Impossible for me to know if it is misprogrammed or not. It clocks like shit, so might be something else than an FX57... Different specs => different category, if you ask me.

 

Personally I don't think Q3FE shold be mixed with 980's, either - different stock speeds :) I guess that applies to Q3QP as well, to name another example.

Give me a photo I want to see what had written on the top of cpu.

 

If it's anything like the ES chips I've had, it won't say a word.

This. If you read Revision Guide for AMD Athlon 64 and AMD Opteron Processors, you'll figure out that the FX model number if calculated as follows (row number 3):

If you read the note at the top, you'll know that if NN=0 then the BIOS should program "AMD ES" which it apparently didn't. Then ZZ= 24 + NN (=0) we get FX-24. This is simply an unrated ES AMD FX CPU and given by it's stock frequency is an FX-57 ES.
I will delete the category in the future. Right now I've discovered a huge bunch of interesting and supposedly, unknown info about s754/940/939. Stay tuned.
