Hmm. I just ordered a 0517GPPW. Never seen this stepping before, I hope it does well ;)

Oh and 2*256 KHX3200 BH5 243FSB 2-2-2-5-7-13 1T dual 3.2V SP32M stable :rolleyes:

..and batch number 0963 can do StressPrime2004 2906MHz @ 1.64V on AIR :fact:

air, but what's room temp ?

Zalman 7700CU ? (same as your sign)

1.65vcore, what kind of temps you getting idle and load?

I guess i could try 1.65vcore, but 2.6ghz @ 1.45 is enough for me atm :)

are you guys using 1.3v + 123% and more or like me 1.55v+xx% ?

which option is better ?

Room temp is about 20ºC with balcony door open
All my air is with Zalman 7700CU :D

Now its time for Vapo :slapass:

With ~20ºC room temperature it was at load 60-62ºC :nono:
Idle, dont know :rolleyes:

I like to use 1.3V + 123% and so on :)

Hmz, I got batch number 0975 or something I think. I can't do that high superpi but you might have better cooling, because tornado + slk don't do that much.

fast test of the LBBLE 0517 EPAW :

http://wowgame.free.fr/3000+%20939/L...517%20EPAW.jpg

my WC is too hot outdoor this afternoon :mad:
then prime stoped

http://wowgame.free.fr/3000+%20939/L...-1.584vspi.jpg

all watercooled same as the 2 other tested :banana: this night probably max screen testing :D i'll try 3174-3180 it's possible i think..

0517BPEW goes at least SP8M 3200MHz 1.66Vcore with VapoChill LS :toast:
Need definitely test 0517BPDW with my Vapo
Then DI :fact:

I agree with you here...
For those that don't know, let me explain what a batch code is so you can form your own opinions on this topic. Cpu cores are made of silicon which is cut from one large silicon wafer. The process starts in the center of the wafer (the first core cut out will receive a batch number of 0001) and move outwards from there. Personally I believe in the "lower the batch code, the better the cpu" theory. Most all cpu's I've tested have conformed to this. Now every once in a while AMD may have just a bad silicon wafer and this in turn would produce an average cpu, even if it's batch code is #1. Here's an example of a nice wafer :) , my x2 4600+ (now OPB's) had a batch code of 0029:

@ 1.488Vcore :cool:

Oh I forgot to say, there always will be exceptions to this rule though my 3200+ Venice - LBBLE 0515APAW, batch code in the 500's, did better than most others I've seen with the same stepping:

So how many are cut from a single wafer? What is the highest batch code?

I have no idea on that one... :p:

I'll bet you that yours was one of the better OC'ers for that stepping :p:

That steep is better?
0519EPAW or 0518EPBW
Thx

So what do you think 0515FPDW is worth getting or should i wait for something better?

My 3000+ Venice stomps it into the ground, but I still have a place in my heart for that first A64 - that POS...

Hahah I had a week 37 at one point also, it was a turd! If I remember correctly week 36/37 were really bad weeks with really bad mem controllers.

Good results there! Trying to get my 3000+ stable at 2,7ghz but I've failed some times now hehe :) Will might get it stable with 1,52v and my SLK and a noname fan.

3000+ LBBLE 0516DPJW - 2800 MHZ 1.568V AIR - UCmajewski XS - stock cooler

I just picked up a Venice with the above steppings. Will put it under water soon. I hope I have at least a 2.9Ghz chip here :D

Great CPU, great clock

:toast:

Wht is your water temp and ambient?

Im working on stabalising my chip with prime95 stabilty (WC) have gone over 3hrs @ 2906mhz but have failures after tht. I have everything enclosed in my case, im sure if i removed the pump (from the case ofcourse!!) my temps would come down a bit!!
