A Barton 2500+ Locked Qeustion

[adamginz15]

Even if i will buy a locked Barton ,
What stepping is the best, so it can reach 200 fsb
on the locked 11 multi = so it will bring me 2200 on max @ 1.775 V

Most steppings should allow you to run 200*11. I have an AQXEA which seems to be pretty good, I am at 220*10.5 ATM.

I think you would have a hard time finding a 2500 that could not run stable @ 2200MHz with 1.775v. You would have to have really bad luck not to achieve your goal with a 2500 barton.
More than likely any barton you pickup will be alot newer than mine and a better overclocker.
I'm sure someone will chime in with the desired steppings.

There are plenty 2500's out there that won't do 2200 @ 1.775,trust me..

Well maybe he should start a poll or something to get a feeler for what XP2500+'s are able to achive with stock vcore?

[Hell-Fire]

If ya find an AQXEA, those are typically the best. The earlier the stepping the better.

You should be able to hit 2.2ghz on 1.775v, but why that specific target voltage may I ask. Also, are the rails on yer psu solid?

My AQXEA o/cs nicely.

[adamginz15]

yes solid rails.

My Barton 3000 runs 200x11 at 1.65 Vcore. It will do 2300 at 1.75V and 2400 at 1.85. The difference now between the 2500 and 3000 is < $75

See sig for stepping

My 2500+ does 200x11.5 (2.3Ghz) at 1.56v and 250x10 (2.5Ghz) at 1.81v. Mind you, I'm using a Prometeia, but it's still quite a good chip. :D

My friend is running his 2500+ at 2230mhz 1.65v.

0334'ish IIRC.. been trying to con him out of it for months 8-)

Mine can do a little over 2.3Ghz @ 1.6v. :D (folding/prime95/sandra/3dmark stable)

[freeloader]

My AQZEA does 2200mhz (3200+) at stock voltage. Will do 2400mhz at 1.775 (Prime stable).

[=STE=BloodAngel]

Mine does, 2.04 Ghz @ 1.85 :'(
I'm going to do the voltage mod to get higher. But I've got a question. Is it possible to glue the wire to the chip instead of soldering? Just asking because I'm a total noob at doing these kinds of mods and I don't want to kill my mobo :mad: .

I don't think glue would work because its not conductive.

[=STE=BloodAngel]

But if the wire makes contact it's ok? right?
