And now we have 226 posts with no OC results. This will be one hell of a thread once we see some test results. This could be the longest thread ever with no real information.
And I am guilty of contributing to the nothingness too :)

Preliminary results:

vcore: 1.2625 in bios, 1.248 real.
mine should be in by saturday.
going for sucide run @448x9 right when i pop it in
screw letting the paste set:ROTF:
i should have mine friday from ncix. im going to lap it and then fire it up and post results shortly after.
After some fiddling, I'm now set on 3.4 GHz 1.4v (F@H SMP is getting errors after a while at 1.375v). I used CoreTemp 0.95 which should be more accurate and the hottest core is 72c (28c ambient) instead of 57c from SpeedFan (5C under ambient at idle is impossible so adding 15c make it accurate enough).
Here is a screenie of the current settings :

if you have the skill could you consolidate all the results like the conroe overclocking database so everyone can see how every go stepping is doing!!!

This Guy hit 3.6 8 hours prime stable so far and the temps look pretty good, he is on water though.
Okay here's my preliminary results.
3.4GHz (378x9) at default voltage settings (1.360 in CPU-Z). Running dual Orthos Small FFTs for 20 minutes now. Air cooling only.
3.5GHz it immediately errors out. Looks like I'll have to raise voltages to get over that hump.
Error at about 28 minutes for one set of cores, the other one seems fine. Going back to 3.3GHz (366x9) to find the Air/Stock Voltage stable point.
GUYS GUYS GUYS
INCLUDE your CPU Batch# and VID PLEAAAAAAAAAAAASE
we need to weed out the dogs from stars
Hmm, I'm a newbie at this so where can I find that out?

Well, my chip just shipped from NCIX and it's a B3. :(
that sucks
buy another one :D
How can you tell?Quote:

Anyways.
Batch# L723A930 (Pack Date 7/13/2007)
VID readout from Rightmark is 1.163 to 1.313
The shipment invoice has the product code of the chip and mine ends in SL9UM. The guys who already received G0s from NCIX verified that their invoices showed the proper SLACR product code when their chips shipped.Quote:

Hmm, when did you order yours? It could be that you simply got the last of the B3's...
any chance you can use coretemp PLSQuote:

Mine just shipped also & its a G0. Tomorrow afternoon I'll post some results. Just trying to decide between air or water for my initial tests. I'll probably use the corsair nautilus with stock block or Apogee GT block. I'll go for highest suicide Pi & 3DMark 06 stable first:)
Coretemp says 1.1625V during idle. 1.3125V during Load (I have EIST on).
*edit* Hmm, wait I didn't set it properly
