If you patch SP1 into Vista it will force the TLB fix onto a Phenom 9600, my question is would it do it to the 9850 as well? It shouldn't because the chip doesn't need it and I know that doesn't mean a thing.

No it will not.
i noticed in my bios that there was the option even with my 9850 phenom
AMD Phenom 9850BE on DFI LANPARTY UT 790FX-M2R
8GB(4X2) 1066ddr2 OCZ Platinum

PCP&C 750w CF edition
35W 2400 mobile 10X240=2400Mhz 1.9vc on on DFI LANParty Ultra B
gig of Mushkin LVL2 BH5 PC3200
BFG OC 6800GT
3 WD 36GB Raptors in RAID 0
i was wondering the same question, does it apply to a 9850BE?
well im not sure, as winrar is a dead givaway if it is enabled, there was also a rumour that it applied to XPSP3, so i decided to bench the lot, here are the results,
now you can see a moajor performance hit in Winrar with SP1 instaled, take this as you will, i say that maybe it is indeed applied and that, its only affecting some multi apps.
i also took a 5 -10 FPS hit in crysis, but thats another story, hope this helps
