SL6WK P4 3.0C 800FSB Any Good ???

[salamanzer]

Ive just taken delivery of a Intel Pentium 4 3.0C 800 FSB with the code SL6WK Malaysia.

Has anyone else tested these chips ???? Are they any good ???? If not i will send it back !

Still waiting for my MSI Neo mobo - so i cannot test it at the moment :mad:

Any help would be great - a crap oc'in £350 processor will p##s me right off !

I haven't heard of any other types just yet

[salamanzer]

Errr has anyone heard anything about these chips ? I have to send it back within 48 hours or no money for me :(

Im using one of them right now with prommie, will test it and post results soon.

[salamanzer]

sooner rather than later i hope - i will have to send it back on monday morning :(

heard they do 4ghz on default voltage and air cooling

[macci]

saaya, that was a joke I guess? :D

I guess the SL6WK Malay is the only version of 3.00G available right now.

If you manage to get it past 3.6GHz aircooled using default voltage then you have an excellent chip :) (mine did around 3550MHz)

[salamanzer]

LOL - 4Ghz on air would be very nice :D

Ive got a prommie mach2 comming to cool this baby down - but no mobo to test on air yet - im really hoping that this chip is good - i wish somebody knew :(

I cant spend £350 notes on a crap chip - just got rid of my amd system to buy this - gutted if its crap !!!

oops sorry :D the review i saw was about an 2.4c that could be oced to 3ghz on air and def voltage...

if your board can take a high fsb sell that 3ghz chip and get the 2.4c . they oc about the same it seems, but youll have a higher fsb with the 2.4c at the same speed=more performence...

these are not amds batch codes and #s mean next to nothing with intel chips.
Look for a fresh one thats youre best bet.

[saaya]

dunno, but back in the P3 days malaysian chips were the bests if i remeber it correctly, they ran hot but fast.

lol siceyhuevos nice name :toast:

macci,what FPO/BATCH is your P4 3GHz??? :)

To my knowledge, that is correct, so I guess we couldn't recommend any other sSpec besides that one :D .

That should do you pretty good, just stay away from Philippines :(

Salamanzer,
YES! They're good chips, don't worry. It's luck of the draw and will rely heavy on your equipment. And your equipment sounds top notch.

[salamanzer]

This is the equipment i have got :)

Prommie Mach 2
P4 3.0Ghz 800FSB
MSI Neo mobo
2 x 256MB Twinmos 3700
ATI 9800 Pro

Any good - i really want 4.0GHz + 4.1/4.2 would be nice :)

You have the same odds as anybody else at getting 4ghz it's all basically luck or drastic cooling measures with oodles of voltage.
Anybody tells ya different there lying to ya;)
Each chip is different.
There all from Malay "The 800fsb ones"
I have 2 here that are in series boxed on same day one after the other.
One will do 4250mhz One wont do 4ghz to save its life.
There is no possible way to tell anybody what a chip will do with out testing it first. Using the same equipment that youre using.
And i mean the exact same. Not 2 different motherboards like trying 2 ic7's.
It would have to be on the one you were going to buy.

[Lunatic]

where did you buy prometeia mach2 ? :)

[salamanzer]

a little shop down the road from where i live - i will see if they have a website :)

Cheap only £409 - less than my vapo PE :D

Jason

[Tweaked!]

salamanzer, that chip is garbage, just throw it in a envelope and send it to me, you'll be doing yourself a favor;)

As far as I've seen, there's only the 2.4 and 3.0 witht the 800mhz setup. Enjoy that little sucka:D

[salamanzer]

thanx tweaked :D

im hoping it will be better than my last AMD setup - got to a massive 3.1GHz and the chip died from over-volting - i was gutted - my next chip only managed 2.8GHz :(

As soon as the mobo and prommie mach 2 turn up i will post up some specs - oh and where can i buy bios chips for the Abit NF7-S V2.0 - the bios seems to have died and i cant sell it !!!!

4Ghz+ here i come (hopefully!!!) :banana:

Jason

PS - my gpu is a really bad oc'er - any ideas - will not run very much over stock at default voltages :(--> ATI Saphire 9800 Pro its really limiting my 3DMark 2001 score :smileysex
