Sounds good, thanks guys. I wonder why such a difference between the 146s and 144s?

Get some better RAM that time is crap. :p:Quote:

http://sponge.ez.pri.ee/data/media/3/26750.JPG little 1m run with my very crappy opteron, 1,45v 2,7 ghz stable :S
i was using 704-2bta but then went back to 623-3 to find the same problem, i know its not the board as i ran it at 8x370 without a problem, suppose 100mhz+ on the cpu is better than having +50mhz on the ramQuote:

gets up around 52c+ under load.. 35-36c idle with my watercooling and as5..
I'm thinking RBX + ihs removed would be much better contact..(rbx doesn't cover the whole ihs).. should I try it?
still have a 0536 that does 2.8 laying here so not too worried about killing another(r.i.p 2.4c) cpu with a razorblade.. atm
yea try it. ive just stuck my watercooling back on my rig. getting between 30-33c idle 42c load on my 146 @ 3g 1.49v ( in windows)
Where are you guys getting these cpus? I looked on newegg and they only had opteron 148's. Thanks!
after finding out the mem controller was holding me back, currently on 3.1ghz 1.55V :toast:

what watercooling setup you running?Quote:

thinking of removing the ihs later to drop temps abit more :D
thats some nice temps you get with that swiftech storm , i may have to get one and replace my mcw6002
test @ 3g 1.49v

Very nice tatts :)Quote:

Very nice CPU temp and the vcore rock stable too.
Do you use a Hyper 580w PSU?

thanks :D
yep, using the hiper type r 580w :D
the mem controller is struggling when it gets to 3.1ghz+ so have to keep ram close to 200mhz to get it stable, more mhz on the cpu is better than mhz on the ram tho :D
struggling again @ 3.2ghz, can bench it & play COD2 with 1.6V but occt isnt playing ball, will have to play with ram more :(
Well this isn't anything you haven't seen already. 146 CABYE 0540 @ 2800 1.392vcore. Stupid me - didn't write down the whole stepping :slapass: Can't remember anymore which one it was: FPBW or FPMW :rolleyes: I'm going a bit slower because it's my first A64 rig and only had it since monday.
The best part is that the cpu was on some kind of special offer in alternate. I got it with only 149€ (boxed) :D Now it has gone up to 164€ but none in stock. How can you beat that? :cool:
Finally got time to tune my Opty 146 CABYE 0540FPMW, received Thursday from Monarch.
Did stuggling to get it SuperPI32M stable, and found out it is the memory, that giving headache, CPU by itself is very good actually.
First tried the Geil One SE 2x512MB TCCD, interesting thing is, if set Row Cycle Time (Trc) to 9 passed the PI 32M, but will fail if at 7.

Then tried G.Skill 1GBGH. Worked out fine at DDR 504, 2-2-2-3, at DDR544, 2-2-2-5, ok for PI 1M, but no further, need time for tuning.

Glad to have this baby on hand, as part of my clooection, sit aside with the Venice 0517EPMW. The collection will keep growing......
DId tried 10x310 at 1.55V, but at that time, did not tune memory's setting well, may be it will work if I set the Trc to 9, just thinking..... :p:
Heh, no maxed yet, just broken 3.1GHz barrier with AIR cooling (room temp on 23ºC) :D

Post update: I did get 3GHz stable on my 146 in sig :cool: It will go higher i'm sure.

Pancake here's my 146 doing 3000 with 1.60v (21c ambient) using what most would consider an inferior waterblock by todays standards the dangerden maze3.Quote:

As you can see there is no heatsoak in my watersystem and tight 8.5 degree delta between the idle and load temps.
I think most of you guys have good blocks but the heatexchangers (rads) aren't performing that well. Most of the commercial computer radiators and
automotive heatercores are the two pass design which don't let the water slow down enough to remove the heat.
Example: inlet is one end tank where the water flows to the opposite end then returns to the other side where the outlet is beside the inlet tank.
I think the biggest improvent would be to find a radiator that has the inlet and outlet on the opposite ends of the heatexchanger rows or run higher CFM fans on the radiator.
Just my :2cents:

Hi!
Here's my new CABYE 0540 FPBW.
Stock cooler. Ambient temp is too high!! And in full load it reaches about 56/58 °C.
So I've tested it only @ 1.36 (windows reading).
Max Prime stable:

Max 1m stable:

It's not the best, but definitely it's not bad!!
Waiting for liquid cooling..... ;)
pushed it a bit more , upto 3.1. just bumped the vcore upto a reasonable amount so i can keep pushing not keep going back and forth to bios.
i set ram timings loose so they wont be a problem

What BIOs are you guys using for your TCCD memory on the DFI LP NF4 SLI-D??? I have the SLI-DR, but it's the same bios for either board.
has anyone else got occt stable @ 3.1ghz+?
