>>You can't get an "unlocked" cpu with virtualization, but you can get the same chip locked with virtualization extensions

The 4770K has the core virtualization function VT-x and VT-EPT, just not VT-d. I believe this has often been the case for desktop vs server CPUs; Intel needs to distinguish its desktop vs. server offerings after all. The 4770 is locked and gains VT-d and TSX-NI.
