0450epmw 3000+

I just picked up a new 3000+ to play with wile my FX_55 is at RMA. its a 0450 for sure, but i am not sure if it was EPMW or SPMW, but a 0450 for sure:) I put it in so fast and forgot to take a desent look at it.

Anyway...it runs pretty nice. upto 2500 mhz on water with stock vcore :) I have attached some Spi screenies. Unfortunatly my ram will only run at 245 max 2.5-2-2-10 (ballistix3200) i cant get them higher nomatter timings,so i had to use a divider:( Cant wait for my G-skill LE to come......

My neo2 is max stabel at 310, so i cant se how fare she realy wonna go.....but i am happy with the result sofare. I can boot at 9*334 , but not stable at all. its the mb holding me back....

its nothing special, but ok for a 3000+ :)

Nice overclock. Is that all at stock voltage?

No..I can go to 2500 mhz with stock voltage. i need 1.65 to get 2800 stabil. My mb is holding me back from ther as it cant go past 310 stabil:(

It's "Stable". :)

Very nice results mate, that is one kickass 3000+. Try some extra cooling and volts on the chipset, that might get you a bit higher HTT.

Thank you !

I am gaming HL2 as we speak, and i have bin doing that for the last couple hours at 2800 mhz 2.65 vcore :) If it dont crash before tomorow...its stable for me :)

If ther is an "voltage option" for chipset on this neo2 i cant seem to find it??????? Ther is the CPU VID and AGPV DDRv etc. but i cant find any for chipset. i have bin wondering about that since i started playing with it??

Maybe only in a special bios or different section? I've never used the NEO2 so I don't know. Perhaps someone will answer this thread with the answer, if not then I suggest you make a new topic with the question. As for cooling, grab whatever will fit on the chipset with your gfx card...if the Thermalright NB-1C will fit, get that...other wise look to the Vantec Copper chipset cooler. Does the trick on my DFI LP UT nForce 3.

(edit: may I also add that I've found HL2 to be the end all be all test for stability. It may pass Super Pi 32M, may pass 50 loops of lobby high, but if it crashes HL2, it ain't stable.) ;)

Yes...HL2 is also my favorit stability tester:) If it can run Hl2 it can run anything after my experience :)

Whats the highest stable you can achieve with 1.75vcore?

I cant realy find out, course my mb maxes out at 310, and that only gives me the chance to run 9*310 =2790 it does that on 1.65v:) If i could get my mb to go higher it would be great, but i only have the 9x multi to play with, so the max i can get is the 2800 mhz :(

Hi Again :)

Now i got my G.skill 2*256 PC4800LA goodies......they ROCK. Anyway....I wanted to see how far i could go with this great 3000+. I attached a screenie. i will test more tonight. Ram is at 2.65v and cpu only at 1.5v :)

Nice chip you have got there :)

Just got a 0450 my self. Hand picked among one hundred.

3200+ 0450VPBW batch 0001 :D

Cant wait to get off work so I can do some testing.

13# Nice......Dont forget to post some results:) dammmm.....these G.skill do 300 FSB 2.5-3-3-10 2.65v.......where have these ram bin all my life:) I cant wait to see what they will do with my FX-55 next week:)

I will post some results in a few hours. With my bad luck im sure it hits the wall at 2600-2650Mhz.

damn.. 300 2.5-3-3-10. How stable?

Im thinking of getting some G.skill my self. I have got some super BH5 which does 280 2-2-2-5, but I dont like feeding my cpu 3.8vdimm. For 24/7 its out of the question. 290-300 2.5-3-3-10 @ 2.65v however, I would be comfortable with.

Im running a pair of Ballistix in my surfing/gaming rig.. maybe I should swap them for some Gskills.

Here is a another 3dmark screenie :) GFX Stock :)

They are ROCK stable at 300 2.7v (had to feet them a little more) My mb will not go past 310, so its holding me back:( CPU and RAm will do more for sure:) 2700 mhz 1.65v with poor water (asetek waterchill hydor l20 pump) single radi, ambient temps 22 degrees c....so i am pleased with this cpu, and its mem controller :)

SIOUX,

I have a feeling that the vdimm voltage is linked in some way with the chipset voltage, either that or the VTT that tracks the vdimm is helping improve stabilty. Let me explain.

With my Neo2, i can run for example 320htt with a 100mhz divider with my vdimm voltage at 2.75 volts, if i drop the the vdimm to 2.65volts i start to experience instabilities. The ram can run at 270mhz 1:1 with 2.65 volts so using a divider of 100mhz makes sure that the ram is not effecting the result (i.e the instabilty experienced with less voltage is not down to the ram not handling the speed its running at).

Why does this happen (see my first sentance)? Either the chipset voltage tracks with vdimm or with VTT. Id liek to hear some other peeps view on this.

Oh almost forgot, nice chip u got there just what i need :thumbsup:

hmm.....interesting........Could be nice to here some other peoples view on that like you say.
It must be something like that. course even at 300 FSB the chipset needs more than stock volt, so something is draging it along?????

My bad luck struck again.

Max stable for s-pi 1m @ stock voltage is 2430Mhz .. CRAPPY Chip.. argh.

0450VPBW .. my ass.

And the last numbers on the third line are 0001 !? there goes that theory :(

Try some more voltage, it may love it :D

Most mobile chips have 0001-0100. I still think there is a better chance to find a gem among the first.
I have 0002, 0003 + VPFW 0001, 0002 available. Im tempted to get one or two more.

Im gonna try feeding it some more voltage now. If it doesn´t like it, ill make it pay.

edit: 1.61vcore .. max thru S-pi 1m 2650Mhz.

Im getting a new one.. this one is worse than the 0446TPAW i have. Think ill try a 0450VPFW 0001/0002 this time.
