i set most of the 0615 machines i built to 2800@1.35v. so they load temps were about 42-43c. those are air temps though. i only built 7 machines with 0615s. one of them wouldn't 2800@1.35 due to temps. was getting up to 53c. so i sold the chip itself to a friend and i believe he's going to delid it.Quote:

I'm surprised I'm not typing in caps, cause I'm pissed. seriously.
i wouldn't be too frustrated if you can't get it 24/7 stable @ 3ghz. you're on air right?
Just ordered a 0606 VPMW from flickerdown
I must say, the chap running the place has been extremely helpful (and patient) despite my indecisiveness along the way.
I will post my results here as soon as I mount and test the chip.
If all goes well I will rinse and repeat the process in hopes of a pair of high clockers :) for a small 4 way rendering cluster on water.
I will post pictures also of my 8 slant rackmount.
nice. i bet dave is happy he's starting to push those out the door. i don't know why everyone is having trouble getting rid of those chips. they are excellent steppings.Quote:

I took his advice and she is at ~3008 (9x334). Just ran 5+ mins of SP2004 and got an error on CPU 1 at test 3. Now she is talking.

Btw itznfb i think ur doing a great job with the chart so i'm glad its back up.
actually, the temps are pretty accurate. I've been checking the mobo temps in bios regularly, and usually they are dead on, if not differing by maybe 1-2C.
I'll definitely take your advice and try a lower memory clock. Maybe I'll use some DDR400.
By the way, I think the message is finally out, that this thread is a database of steppings. period. not necessarily stable, but just what an individual user's experience with a stepping was so that other's might gain some knowledgable information from the thread. I'm happy with my processor, only because I found this thread and have learned much from the regulars on here. This is one of my favorite threads on the forums. Good debates, good chips, good knowledge, and good peeps.
If you don't like, go back to Tom's Hardware Forums.:p:
yea, i've had some chips that would only do 2880 at 2/3 divider (PC3700 OCZ), but with a 1/2 divider could clock up to 3ghzQuote:

What LDT voltages are you guys using when clocking to something like 2.9Ghz on your opteron 165-170's? Is a higher LDT voltage necessary? Need to know what to use when I finally get mine in the mail.
^^^ I used default for vLDT and chipset and worked OK at 334x9 LDTx2.5. Absolute_0 says he ups both .1v but only to be sure. I tried both ways and both worked the same, so with lower volts there's less heat :D
Okay nice to know, I think I am still on default LDT voltage of 1.3 with my SLI-D, that is if thats indeed the stock voltage:) Just doing some homework in advance of me getting that opteron 165, bought it on ebay so its coming from US, luckily not bought from an overclocker, so its still sealed and unmessed with heheheh. Do you think my bios will suffice for my opteron 165, suppose I just keep my 623-3 bios, got TCCD memory.
Can anybody explain me how burn-in process works please?Quote:

Last night I left my computer running 2 instances of CPU Burn-in (disabled error checking) for 8 Hours @1.55V & @2970 mhz (that is still undervolting that speed but was I supposed to run only at a speed that it was 100% stable at?)
Now it can't even run SP 2004 @2970 mhz @ 1.55 V for more than 2 minutes.
Ambient temps and all settings are exactly the same. And I have cleared cmos and started from scratch.
Any explanation is appreciated. Thanks.
This asks the question of if people want some stability test measurements, then why not start a NEW thread (since this issue keeps coming up over & over again), and have people post there ONLY if they are prime stable for 4 hours (or whatever) or rosetta or ...Then whoever starts it, can put as much work as itznfb does to make a list.Quote:

you might be able to go a little higher. my CCBBE goes to 2780 at 1.32V. If you're lucky like thunderstruck, you'll be able to get a little higher than 2.8 with like 1.28V :slobber:

With a little guidance from Repoman, I finally got FSB on up there (334x9). This was done at 1.62 volts on the core. Since then I've done pretty much the same speeds and tests at 1.59. Watercooled of course (see specs below). :banana:

Glad to hear I could help rapier ;)
My chip has the exact same behavior as yours except mine stops being stable at 2970@1.475V. 3Ghz gets more unstable with more voltage. Maybe we can work together to find a solution. Its a strange problem to have a chip not like more vcore to add stability. Its not like its alot of volts or anything. 3Ghz @ 1.5V 9 minutes prime stable, @1.525V 6 minutes prime stable, @1.55V 2 minutes prime stable????? I have watercooling and the ihs is removed so I know heat is not the problem.Quote:

Yes it is pretty strange.. I will look into it a bit more, this chip has a lot of potential, it's really strange your CPU can't do 3GHz but can do 2970. I have a proven board, ram and cooling that took my 0608 up to 3.15ghz somewhat stable in cool weather, so the CPU is the only limiting factor :)Quote:

I just downgraded from watercooling to a TTBT as I want to make my computer more portable.
I'm getting 32 idle, and 49 load, so I need to get the airflow going better in this case before I am going to do an 8 hour prime (a good measure of stablitly IMO). I miss my water :(
49c Under load is very good on air imo.Quote:

I have hardly tweaked anything yet, so I will try and get the voltage down to perhaps 1.425v, and that will help a bit I guess.
The side of my case is off right now, and temps are peaking at 47-49 degrees, which is slightly better.
My plan is to cut a hole in the side of the case, and create a kind of windtunnel going from the BT to outside the case, and stick an extra 120mm fan there to aid the airflow. I saw this guy on sharkyforums who did that:
http://img240.imageshack.us/img240/2185/blowhole3yf.jpg
Pretty neat I thought.
Yeah that's a pretty sweet idea, I was gonna do that when I had my BT but ended up just getting water instead
Just received my Opty 165, CCBBE 0610DPMW. Sofar, it runs prime stable @ 2.6GHz @ stock volts with IHS and XP-120. The only trouble is my ram. I know my 2GB G.Skill DDR500 can do 260MHz @ 3-4-3-6-1 (stock DDR500 HZ, 3-4-4-8-1). Now I have to put it down to 143MHz, resulting in a poor 208MHz @ 3-3-3-8. Should I raise the vcore, is the mem controller weak, is it something else? Still I'm pretty happy with this Opty tough :woot:
I hope the temps are more accurate on the CFX3200-DR then they are on the SLI-DR Expert and Venus. Otherwise your in the 50C+ range.Quote:

I didn't use AS5 though, just the stuff which came with. I will re-do it tomorrow with AS5 and see if that can shave of a few degrees.
The main thing is I think the airflow within the case.
I'm definately going to have to put the hole in the side asap because right now the airflow is just not good enough to keep the graphics card or the cpu cool enough. Funnily enough the chipset is staying at a resonable temperature, and I'm using the stock cooler there.
Still at 1.45v with the CCBBE, it wouldn't do 1.425, and I tried a variety of settings with it.
I've primed an hour and run 3dmark05 four times, so I'm fairly sure that's stable, though I will do a proper prime run when I get the cooling sorted.
I think it is reporting correctly, because I've been keeping track of the ambients in my room, with and without air conditioning to see the variable effects on the temps on the mobo read out and the smartguardian readout. I think the mobo is correct, as it usually reads that my CPU, idle, is like 4C-5C above ambient. That makes sense. And my smartguardian reads like 1-3C above the mobo. Sometimes it might get it dead on, sometimes it might not. I'm sure there is a margin for error. And I'm defiinitely sure that every mobo is not like it's brother, so that their are plenty of discrepancies when comparing two of the same mobos and their temp read outs.Quote:

Hey Burky is that a panaflow fan u got in ur rig there?
Does anyone know what the latest opteron steppings are, because due to the demand in australia, most retailers are sold out and ETA is the 16th of june. Im guessing they would bring in the latest ones. :confused:
getting an opteron 170 @ 2650mhz with 1.275 vcore is pretty good right? What are opterons running, the new ccb1e and dpmws, @ 1.275-1.3 vcore what are they running?
yea its weird mine idles 37-38 degrees, I thought that was highQuote:

I have one of two problems: A) My hardware is defective, or B) I am simply bad at overclocking. I think it's the latter.
With stock volts, I get a blue screen at 300*9=2700. With stock volts again, I get a blue screen at 270*9=2430. It turns out, I pretty much get a blue screen at anything over 1800mhz. Yes, with 3x, ram dividers, ldt volt at 1.3, etc, etc. I'm thinking that it's a Windows XP thing, considering I didn't bother reformatting, reinstalling drivers, or anything. It might also be a hardware problem, but likely not, considering it boots fine and runs fine. I did, however, reset CMOS a few times, but that didn't do anything. I will be reformatting in a few days and giving it another shot, but for now, will be running at stock. Anybody have any tips to help me out?
Try increasing the vcore. LDT and chipset voltage do little in terms of stability imo.

BTW I have the CCB1E 0550VPMW stepping highest temps during dual prime and play Tiger was 52c which I consider pretty good on air....
BTW Prime has been running over 8 hours now just got done playing Tiger during the last 2 hours
Yes, it's panaflo, but it's not my case. It's just an idea I got off someone on Sharky Forums who has the same case and a big typhoon.Quote:

LDT, Chipset volts have no effect so far (did on some other cpu's I had) and RAM timings on my UCCC's are pretty loose. 3-4-8-4-11-16 and 9ns on the async latency and 7ns for the preamble time.
By the way it runs hot as hell. 40-43c at 1.4v 2.8Ghz
Here's a screenshot.
Thunderstruck that is way impressive, that's what mine did with IHS on water. If you remove IHS and get water cooling 3GHz@1.4 or 1.375v may be in your reach :woot: Which translates into 3.2GHz stable at ~1.6vQuote:

It seems pretty good considering I'm only 80mhz down, but the voltage is 0.075v lower and I'm running cooler too.
Still priming...I will update the picture in a while.
Increased vcore all the way up to 1.55, didn't do anything, computer couldn't even start up and got stuck on 3 red leds. RAM is at 250, using the 5/6 divider. I hope that a clean reformat will fix things up. I'll report in a few days, thanks.Quote:

Mine? Hehe, we shall see? I'm kinda hoping it's not though :D. More testing to come later, very busy now with damn homework.
I have not tried a whole lot with my CCBBE on stock volts but I dont think it'll do 2.65 at stock volts. For some reason it has scaled well and is almost stable at 3.0ghz. Better than my last ccbbe which topped out around 2.9

I'm hoping I can get 2900 out of her with the stock heatsink.
Keep in mind that was with the AMD heatsink and fanQuote:

The vcore is usually 1.45, that's a little Epox fluctuation in the pic. I'm definitely happy with this cpu. One core usually fails by now if it's going to, from what I've seen so far.

any idea what can i tweak in my bios to stabilise my 305x10 overclocks ?
other than vcore that is.
and also whats the max vcore i can go while not killing the chip?
Make sure you are running your ram below stock speeds so that you can remove that from the equation for instability.
Try changing the LDT and/or chipset voltage. Usually it has little or no effect, but it's worth trying.
What are your specs?
Heh, that's what I thought. Yesterday I failed after three and a half hours. I was surfing the internet as well though, with pdfs, so I think that I induced my error. I will prime another time and get it for longer.Quote:

Mod your TTBT with a panaflo fan and i'm sure u'll get anything stable. There's some panaflo's that run at 114cfm :D:D:D
That's amazing. The stock fan must do about a quarter of that...
Only problem is for me is that I'm in France, and I have never seen any Panaflo fans anywhere (though I have searched quite thoroughly).
There is this one though:
I can get this new: http://www.achetezfacile.com/coolerm...rix-89436.html
Or two of these off ebay: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2-X-PANAFLO-12...QQcmdZViewItem
Which one do you think?
Should I get two of the 112cmf fans, one for the exhaust as well?
Well I received my first CCBE1 0606 VPMW (OEM) from flickerdown today.
I was going to wait until this evening to unpack and mount everything meticulously but then I got impatient and was unable to contain myself.
The temps are higher on the 0606 than my older 0546 by aprox. +4c
I checked the two in sucession and cofirmed this one runs hotter.
I adjusted my vcore to 1.3v and overlocked to 2.6. I ran some rather large rendering tiles 2GB Ram and left it work for a few mins. The overall temps rose and maintained 53-4c
I moved my ram up to 301Mhz and booted up at 2.71Ghz and began the same render, this time I received an error within 4 minutes. It could be memory of chipset settings though...
Does anyone know what adjustements should be made on an A8N32-SLI above 290Mhz FSB?
My Opty 175 CCBWE 0543, yea...gets to 218x11 on stock volts...don't have much time to push it yet...going to wait until I either sell it, or put it under my H2O setup in my new and upcoming rig in the next month.
Yeah, dual primes large FFT. I had them side by side, but the pic was ginormous, so I chopped it up.Quote:

I tried various voltages and the results are always the same. Anything above 2.61Ghz will cause cpu to fail.
I wondered if anyone had been through anything like this also?
i have that issue sometimes. clearing the CMOS cures it for me.Quote:
