swapped to a TDX+ bong 48c @ 3ghz (1.55v)... (water at 21c)
managed to run a few benchmarks at 3220mhz (1.65v) but seems ram or mobo lets go at about 260mhz (3000 fails 3d, passes prime+memtest @ 1.5v but passes 3d with either 1.55v OR ram at 200 OR ram timings TIGHTENED in windows - same timings cause no-boot if set in bios...) so i cant say how much it would do on a better board...
Is that result with the stock cooling?Quote:

Got an Opty 170 stepping LCB9E 0704XPMW. 2.9ghz @ 1.39v cooled with scythe ninja and Nexus Real Silent (1000rpm) @ 75% (silent freak here :p).
IHS has been removed - Full load with orthos is around 65/63C but it runs around 56/54C running folding@home :)
Temps were hitting 70C with the IHS on :p:
Hi guys,
I am new in here,a month ago i got an Opteron 185 2.6Ghz Toledo core(OSA185CDBOX).
I push it up to 3060Mhz 1.425v on stock cooler,but temps went over 70ºC when i stress it with OCCT so i had a big house fan to blow in there trying to keep temps bellow 70ºC.
I can't find a lot of informations about this chip or any reviews,anyone know how high can this chip go with water cooling?Is it worth to get a water cooling?
At the moment i have it up to 2952Mhz at 1.33v.
Because i don't know how to put my specks in my signature,i will write them here:
Asus A8N32-SLI Deluxe
Opty 185 2.6Ghz(toledo)
Asus EN 8800GTX 768mb
Corsair Twinx 2048-3500LL PRO
PCP&C 750Watt Quad
WD 120GB Sata2,WD 250GB Sata2
Thanks a lot.

Very nice chip, you can probably get it a good bit further with water than you can now. When my 170 was hitting 70C+ on stock volts, it wouldn't even do 2900MHz stable (not sure what actual stable was as I never tested). Now that the IHS is off and it's at 45C, it does 3000MHz on stock volts - that should be comparable to the temp decrease you'll get.Quote:

The difference in performance from 2952 to 3100 is not that much to spend 350-400 euro.

Watercooling for your CPU wont cost 340-400€ ;)
I t's not cheap but more like 200€ depending on where you get it and shipping prices, plus it's not something you throw away when you get a new system. I like to see it as a long term solution.
Thanks for reply v0dka,
May in Holland is cheaper but here in Greece...,i was lokking at a Swiftech kit for watercooling CPU and graphics and costs 350 euro.

Well,i can get cheaper things but i don't want to put in the system something i don't really trust.
Also to get it from another country i don't think it's worth,it will cost the same with shipping.

wow the 170 is nice chip....its so cheap now toQuote:

ok well anyways....i have an opty 165 and the voltage says its at about 1.39 in speedfan and cpuz.....its set at 1.350 in the bios
yurs says 1.32.... did u lower it? or is it still stock.
http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1217/...f425dd95_o.jpg
now when i want to overclock more, how should i handle the HT link?
im not sure how far i can push it with this stepping lcb9e 0704tpmw
To lower the voltage you need to enable Over Voltage CPU VCore in BIOS.Quote:

As for the HT Link(FSBXK8 to NB Frequency)some will say(including me) that anything under 1600 will be fine.
I hope this helps.
stealth
ok cool thanks stealth.
well for now i want to keep it stock .... i want to keep the temps as low as possible.
yeah i heard the opty's can run high HT links.

whats the difference between the denmark core and toledo core?
for an opty 165
,i saw acouple of reviews at newegg claiming that their selling the demark core now instead of the toledo.

Some utilities name it "Toledo" and others name it "Denmark"
CPU-Z report my 185 as Toledo and CBID as Denmark.

All you really need for your CPU is the block, a pump, and a rad:Quote:

http://www.plaisio.gr/product.aspx?c...product=926914 - 30ε
Total - 140ε
Add in a couple of fans (your choice), a few feet of tubing, and a plastic (or copper) "T" for a grand total of maybe 170ε and you're all set for about half the price. If you include a GFX block add another 45ε.
If you can find an MCR220 it's a little better rad than the BIP II listed but the site you gave only has the MCR320 - a triple rad. You could get the MCR320 and use lower speed fans with it - it would be a little quieter that way but also harder to mount. The double rad can still hang off the back of your case like the kit unit does ...
Thanks QuietIce for the informations.
I need to search a bit more before i decide what to get,i need to find out if the stuff i will get worth the money i will spend.
Thanks a lot.

1.64v Vcore, stock cooling running in the 40c range underload??? What am I missing here? Nothing special there at all, in fact the chip is a dud running at only 2.75Ghz with all that added voltage.Quote:
