Perhaps I will get lucky like the others and work my way up to 2.8Ghz :)
does anyone know of any online retailers that are selling good steppings of the opty 170. Im building a new rig with a custom water cooling setup and i want an opty capable of pushing or breaking 3ghz. zipzoomfly and newegg have the lowest price but are the steppings good?
try a used one off the forums or flickerdown.com if you want a handpicked chip...
Yep I second that. - I ordered my 0606 VMPW from filckerdown and it looked like it really paid off! I am currently testing, running @ 2.8Ghz /1.4v. I'm am on stock air so there is no way to conclude this is the chips limits. Plus I am really not very knowlegable at BIOS tuning so... who knows this chip could actually be a 3Ghz overclocker.Quote:

Current diagnosis: CCBE1 0606 VMPW @
2.6Ghz 1.28v
2.7Ghz 1.32v
2.8Ghz 1.387v
I will be putting it under water middle of next week. Worst case it will run cooler. But if things go well... cooler and faster :toast:
Finally, my CPU will be watercooled this week, probably thursday/friday. How should I remove the IHS?
Hey, if you want another entry (doubtful) my chip does the following:
170 Opteron
CCBWE 0546XPMW
2.85GHz @ 1.59vcore under water. http://putfile.com/pic.php?pic=5/14312480999.jpg&s=f5
2.8GHz @ 1.56vcore under water (unverified)
Go for a nice 165 instead they seem to clock better in generalQuote:

My opteron is also very near, it has hit customs, so just a few more days of waiting;)
What is a good method to determine max htt and such on a system?Quote:

Mind you the temps were out there also. (aprox. 56c) Still I wonder if my instabilities are not due to something else other than core instability. (hard to tell)
i'm not really sure how to find the max HTT. for instance on my MSI, it crapped out at 323HTT. i was on 1/2 div and 1.35v on the cpu, so i knew it was a HTT limitation.Quote:

that was the worst post ever ^^
made no sense
Ah well good to know and it makes sense because I experimented and sure enough I too can peak way out there in HTT with lowered dividers. It has to be something else I guess. How about the memory controller in Opteron's is there a way to manipulate the demand on those when overclocking?Quote:

i really think it just comes down to the limitations of the memory controller, and the HTT.Quote:

my mobo topped out at 323HTT as i said. but when i bump up the LDT voltage to 1.3 and lower the multi to x2 i can hit over 340.
Well that could indicate that either its in the core (higher clocks) or, it could also prove to be in the ram. I know the Opteron memory controllers do demand more when outputting higher FSB ratings. Perhaps it all comes down the heat control. I noticed on my 0606 that as I raised the FSB the chip heat output would raise accordingly. I am not an expert but perhaps this could indicate that the memory controller is putting out more heat as a result. If this were the case it would take additional cooling to counter that factor.Quote:

It just doesn't make sense that a chip would require so little power to scale to 2.73Ghz and then demand almost an additional .15v to move another 50Mhz.
Whatever the case, I'm hoping water cooling will fix it :)
What of the other hundred or so options in memory settings. Do they have any relevance to overclocking stability?
Another question I had was, if you lower the multi and raise the FSB to test max HTT does this actually work the memory controller as it would under the typical strain of overclocking?
Hi there guys, because there is so little opterons in australia, and those that are for sale having bad steppings, i am going to order from the US. Can anyone link me to the cheapest price of 3ghz capable 165's as i am unfimiliar with US stores.
Thanks for your help.
check out www.flickerdown.com look at what steppings dave has and then compare with other results of that stepping in the database.Quote:

Some chips just fail @ that temp no matter what voltage or overclock speed. My 170 does 2.8ghz with 1.4vcore 49'c. If I prime @ say 55'c it fails no matter what voltage or speed. I had a 165 that would hit 2.8ghz with 1.42vcore on air & it primed 12 hours @ 56'c. Some chips react differently to heat, some are just plain hitting a wall like mine. Hopefully when winter comes I'll find out if I'm wrong about my wall. Just my 2 cents:rolleyes:Quote:

Ok get a hold of this... My 0609FPBW does 2750Mhz on stock volts Prime, Rosetta, whatever I throw at it. That's 950Mhz OC on stock volts.
But, 2.8 needs 1.4v already and above it gets only worse. 2.9 needs around 1.525v and 3.0 hasnt been stable at any setting (tried upto 1.6v).
Does this thing scale horribly or what, temps can't be the problem as they never get above ~45C in a warm room with dual Rosetta running. Mem is on lowest divider on timings I know it to be stable at 270Mhz. LDT and chipset volts are up and multi's are set.
Whats going on?
so it scales normally...
2750 1.35
2850 1.45
2950 1.55
100mhz/.1v
just like most 165's
They always scale like that
.1v/100Mhz.. yours almost follows that, just needs a slight bump for the last 100Mhz
edit: he beat me
yea, most start to struggle a little bit at the top of the vcore line, so the jump from 1.45 to 1.55 might only get you like 80-90mhz. the stronger chips hold firm to 100mhz/.1v
hmm...Quote:

Great to know! my chip falls right in the norm. then my volts are just slightly I can reach 2750 @ 1.33v but 2.8 does not come @ 1.4v (as far as I can see) but I might of reached a themal barrier though... I think someone hit it right on the nail when they said 55c = instability.Quote:

i have since found the same thing with my 0608, craps out around 2.85 with 133 or lower divider but i can squeeze 3.0GHz with 150 divider.
Weird! Worth a try though.

egh?
its a 2/3 (133) divider, so at 300HTT it runs at 200mhz. yes? i'm not really following your calculations there....
HTT * Divider / 200
oh i see. i usually just multiply the HTT by the fractional divider. less steps.

Async latency is at 9 and Preamble at 7, maybe I should try even higher although I cant believe that will really do any good.
What are your temps on that sweet watercooling you have? Must be near ambient under load or something. :eek: Mine's definately breaking 40C under load when over 2.8Ghz/1.4v. Which is when Oc'ing is getting tough on this chip.
Mine will boot at about any speed and any voltage it seems but getting Prime stable is another story... Rosetta (which is a bit easier on the CPU imo), games and 3dMark behave nicer though. But I better nog get my hopes up for that monster speed of yours cause I'm never getting it lol.
BTW... Would you like to join a good cause and do something for XS with that BEAST? Just click the link in my sig, you really wont regret it. ;)

here you are this was done by who i bought this chip from , who bought 2 of them kept one of them both same stepping and batch code, mine won'y prime at 3100 but will run 24/7 at that i have been running at that for a week super pi etc , aquamark but will not do 3dmark at 3100 but will do at 3030, see links to scores below, these are a good chip but a bit of bios tweaking is required to get the best out of it, runs hot though idles on mine about 37 celsius even at 1.47 volt

At first I thought it must be my CPU oc so I clocked it down to 2200mhz and underclocked the video card. No love. From there it was all downhill. Lockups, video signal loss to the monitor, artifacting, etc. Of course, I don't have another PCIE card, so my brand new build is collecting dust during the RMA now. Ah, the frustration.
found an online store who will hand pick the steppings for me...
Turns out he has quite a few CCBBE's in stock... $311 each(regardless of stepping)...
is it worth forking out the extra for a 170?
or save my dosh and just turnover a couple of 165's till i find a good clocker?
am building a mates comp, and he doesnt mind what cpu he gets so long as it will 24/7 without problems or maintainence) and putting these (or the 170's) in mine and my g/f's and she's in the same boat as him, so ill have 3 to play with to find the best one... my 4400+ blows.. 2.5@1.41(still testing, but nothing on what some people are posting the 165's can do)... but i think my psu could be a little to blame, both in bios and windows jumps around the 1.36-1.41 area :mad:
170/165...
and Jump on the CCBBE's?
OT
also, the ocz5002048pleb-k (plat enhanced bandwidth, may have fudge the code) good to work with? i need something that clocks reasonably on low voltage (msi k8n neo4 plat.. 2.85-2.9 max)
/OT
Glenboy that is awesome, congrats. And they sure do run hot. Mine loads at 38C at stock volts/2750Mhz, while my watercooling was enough to keep my Venice passively cooled and not even break 30C.
@ Kilyin: Sounds like one of the cards XFX is having problems with (because of the fctory overclock), an RMA should solve this. WEre temps on your card or in your case high?
@ niexa77:: Definately get the 165 if you can test three of them.

Thanks guys :) Didn't wanna do it at 1.425, but it's stable at 1.45. same as my 0608MPMW before I took the lid off.. and it's doing a few MHz more on stock (2915 vs 2895) so I think the lid is coming off.. plus it still has it's little break in period, every chip I've had has gotten slightly better.. the 0615 I just had went from 2.95@1.475 to 2.96@1.45.
And yeah I have one more mainboard, another Ultra-D that I'm putting together.. the new 0610 is gonna be my personal one and the 0608 for the family, both crunching rosetta :D 3Ghz dual core for internet and word processing, talk about over kill :lol:

Hi guys. I decided to experiment with 170 overclocking. In a nut shell, replacing the 4200+ with an opty was a good decision. I'm already at a 600 mhz overclock at 1.47 volts. Much better than the x2. System specs are:
Asus a8n32-SLI
opty 170 w/Zalman 9500Cu
2gb Corsair xms4400
seasonic 600Watt SLI PSU
2x evga7900GTX's
SB X-fi
Adaptec usb2.0 Dual tv tuner
MCE2005
My current OC is 10x 260mhz FSB = 2600mhz @ 1.47volts.
This is the highest I've t tried so far. So far, so good. A half hour of dual, affinity set P95 and looping 3dmark06 tests good. Here is my compare URL for 3dMark06:
http://service.futuremark.com/compare?3dm06=335218
I Forgot to mention my stepping was BWE 0551, not a good week I think, but much better than the X2 4200, only hit 2.5 with that, same rig. I'll try higher and update as necessary.
No, heat wasn't the issue. Card core never cracked 55c. I'd like to know how it worked flawlessly one day and horribly the next though!Quote:

yea, there's tons of CCBBE 0610/0615, CCB1E 0608/0609's on ebay.
and they are selling for 1/2 of what they were a month ago
so something interesting has been happening.
after a lot of tweaking and such, i went from prime failure in ~2 mins to about 1.5-2 hours on core 0 while core 1 is still good.
does this sound like heat issue or still a memory issue?
What psu are you using? whats your pwmic & chipset temps? I liked my Super Lanboy, but it never had enough airflow to oc. Have you left the side panel off, & pointed as fan or blower at it?Quote:

most of the time one core will fail before teh other. and if the time span between failures is great enough, the core that survived will prime forever due to the great reduction in heat.
im using the Enermax 535w Whisper. i have a 110cfm fan on my BT, another 110cfm as exhaust in the back, and the stock BT fan as intake in the front. i also have my side panel open with another 120mm fan blowing towards my video card which only has a moderate OC on it right now.
the pc sits in the basement so ambient temps arent a problem.
my PWMIC temps are ~48 if i recall. at 1.475v, my dual cpu burn temps are ~ 44c.
Your Temps are way better than mine. I have the enermax 535w too. The 12v rail idles @ 11.71v and dropped down to 11.35 under load. I stopped using it because it effected my oc and wouldn't power sli without errors. It's probably a long shot, but with the amount of periphials and high cfm fans you got there, whats the 12v rail showing idle & load. You could not be getting enough stable power to the cpu. You do have the two connectors on the board hooked up too right? The DFI is a power hungry board for overclocking,Quote:

Hi this is my first overclock. How is the result? Any area of improvement? Opty 165, Dfi Expert with Patriot Tccds. Thanks. Ones question is why before the Self-test 64k passed, one processor did 5 test and another did 6? Is this normal?
