If thats what happened after tweaking the DRAM settings then its likely a memory issue. I'm starting to become convinced that this UCCC based memory has an affect on overclocks for certain memory controllers and that the Opteron memory controllers are picky about settings and weak at high speeds. Your memory controller may be even weaker then some of the other 0610's and thats why its taking a lot of voltage to get it stable. When you overclock an Athlon 64 the memory controller runs the same speed as the processor so that can pose a problem when you are doing 1GHz+ overclocks on processor meant to run at 1.8GHz. Then again you may just have a weak core that doesn't overclock well.

I agree, weak memory controller=hard :banana::banana::banana::banana:ing time tweaking memory(especially UCCC).:slap:

I guess the 170 CCB1E 0609 FPAW memory controllers aren't that good, cuz we're both pretty much stuck around 2.8ghz. I think cooling is the only reason I get it @1.4 instead of 1.475. I use TCCD & BH-5 it made no difference.

going to get the parts for my mates computer, and strip'n'sell my little comp and both of us will have:

opty (from that ebay guy; ccbbe if he can be trusted)
cfx3200

does this sound good? or g.skill be better? only have experiance with corsair 3200xl's and these...

not sure if it's bios problems or something with the mem ctrlers (using corsair VS UCCC rams)
i experienced some big problems with the bios just now when i was overclocking my rams.

it was rated at 3-4-4-8 at 1/10 dividers as i was testing my cpu limits. the rams managed to run at 275mhz but i didnt have the time to run memtest86 on it/

so i set the dividers to run the rams at 277mhz and attempted to tighten the timings to 3-4-3-8 and the rest of the timings as per advised in the oc guide.

it failed when loading into windows and while booting up by just freezing without any warning signs. even while i was trying to loosen back the timings it would just hang in the bios.

immediately after reseting the bios, i loaded the last stable settings but the moment i set the dividers at 9/10 to run the rams at 277mhz at 3-4-4-8 the com would just freeze up.

many times the booting up would freeze up before it detected the IDE devices or after checking the backup cmos. it got so back that sometimes reseting the bios wouldnt solve the problem.

each time the com booted up, there would be this long delay plus repeated beeps before anything was displayed.

at 1 point, even my gfx card was affected. the last of the diagnostic leds would remain lighted up and sometimes it would display the words " radeon x550xt" on the screen with a blinking cursor.

on certain occasions, the bios screen looked weird, some of the words looked abit scrambled.

i resorted to unplugging the power and leaving it for hours before it would boot properly.
06-10-2006, 07:23 PM
Emperor

the rams ran at 270mhz before and i am not sure why the system just died on me.
while on 270mhz i tried to tighten the timings but it simply wouldnt work and the bios kept crashing at different stages of booting up.

just now it happened again.
it was fine since the first post and suddenly just hanged, the same thing happened again. now while windows is loading, it would either lock up or reboot continuously.

what stepping ? cooling ? temps look a little high at 1.39

Stepping I am not sure. Temp are high i think its due to the high ambiant temp which is ard 33-35 degree. I am using the scythe ninja plus with its default fan. By the way I am using the expert so is the voltage reported in cpuz accurate?

Even though your temps are way better than mine, I'm assuming water absorbs heat better or something & is allowing me the same clock with less volts. I don't think heat is your or my problem getting above 2.8ghz prime stable. I think our chips just won't do it. I have another 170 on the way I ordered it from the ebay listing mentioned a few posts back. Supposedly I'm to recieve a ccb1e so we'll see if it clocks better if its the same stepping. He said he had ccbbe's in 170's too. I might just order another though I've not heard of 170's being ccbbe.

yeah especially since it's been game and rosetta stable here for the last week :fact: I think it's just one specific calculation in prime that it doesn't like, because it also fails after 3 minutes at 2898 even. But it's stable in everything else up to 2915.

Here is mine
I have 2620MHz with standard VCore and I've reached 2718MHz with VCore 1.39V (standard + 4%) but I cant go faster... I've tried 2800 at even 1.5V but I have still error in SP... Maybe I shoul change my AC (Ninja + 2x Delta 120mm fans) for WC.

That's not a bad overclock for a CCBWE. Most simply won't do 2.8ghz. 2.7ghz @ 1.408vcore is very good for that stepping and probably its limit. I wouldn't invest in water cooling with that chip, I'd sell it and invest in a better chip first. CCBBE or CCB1E stepping.

Jimmy007

Maybe You have right but I bought my CPU from second hand and his previous owner reached 2.8GHz at 1.47VCore and 2.7 at 1.42v with WC. I have 2.7@1.39 (it's almost stable with 1.37 VCore - SP falls after about 30 min) with my AC but I cant go faster :( Maybe I should change LTD Voltage? What is LTD Voltage?
and last question what is max safe VCore for daily use?

also, had my 4400 at 1.4 @2.64 booted fine (up to 38 in windows on boot(36 on sensor), run fine for normal use. started up dual sp... 5 mins and it was off...

Hey niexa77

Did you receive tracking info yet on your 165's? I ordered a 170 Friday got tracking info today. I guess its okay if it took time to sort threw 19 cpus to find the stepping I requested. LMK when u get yours. We're both guinnie pigs:rolleyes:

CCB1E 0550VPMW, he said he had CCB1E's & CCBBE's though most people have said they've not heard of 170's having CCBBE. I asked for CCB1E 0550VPMW specifically, then any CCBBE, then any CCB1E.

Try running small ftt's it mostly tests the cpu. Try to leave your ram out of the equation even though you're not even overclocking it. Do you have a 1 gig kit of ram to use? I still think your board doesn't like your ram.

arg. its a 2gb uccc kit. i was under the impression that large fft's would stress the cpu/mem better.

My DFI SLI-DR Expert board has been problematic. I only had it for a week or so and it had problems POSTing, unless I turned the PSU off and on. So I returned the POS and put back my A8N-SLI deluxe board, and guess what ? It can do the same 320x9=2880 prime stable with my opty 165 CCBBE 0610 DPMW. The reason I couldn't do that before is because I always used DDR266 divider, but with the DDR200 divider it works great just like the DFI.

Since I believe my opty can do well above 3 GHz I just ordered the swiftech H2O-120 watercooling kit, and once I get it I will pwn you all.....

Not really IMO. Apparently he got more in & has alot of inventory. These listings are not advertised CCBBE & CCB1E like the other ones therefore probably just a few are @ that price point then you get CCBWE's or something. It suxs if you bought 'em @ $311 but even thats a good deal since most places charge upwards from $350 or so for O.E.M. parts with good steppings as well as retail box. Alot of us appreciate you for this good find. Sorry it turned out this way though.

i believe the mem controller is more sensitive with UCCC. if this is correct then a weak memory controller would be almost impossible to acheive good results with.

welp....hopefully this next CCBBE will have a stronger MC then *crosses fingers*

i really dont want to invest in any more DDR1.

i also cant believe that the CCB1E and CCBBE MC are THAT similar because ive been stuck around the same area for both (2.8 @ 1.475-1.5v)

Actually I'm not so sure!! This 0610 is doing the same speeds with IHS that the 0608 is doing without it + liquid metal thermal paste (just tested them back to back, same ambient)

The 0608 is only managing 3051@1.5 since it's so hot, and the 0610 is pulling it off with 6C higher temps. I think the IHS will have to come off just to be sure :p: PWM temps are ~20C higher@1.5v with the 0610 though :stick: I noticed this the first test as well, and as soon as the other went back in they're down to 40-45

Obviously the ccb1e does awesome with cool morning temps but struggles when it gets hot

edit: I see your 0610 is also most likely better than my 0608 :woot: Take off the IHS and use water and there's your 3ghz@1.4 or 1.375 24/7

real easy mod to get 1.55v , only thingg you have to do is to buy som cunductive paint and connect two points on the mobo with a small pen or something , their real tiny dots :) and you have to scrape them a little to get good contact.

It must be quite easy as I did with my asrock and I hadnt touched anything like that before. The only problem was having slightly too much silver on the end of my pin and it started spreading to other contacts which are pretty close (heart stopping moment for me at the time lol) luckily it dried and stopped running. :banana:

Receoviced an Opty 165 0610 DPMW yesterday...so far I can get to 311x9 with 1.408V but prime at CORE 0 "stop responding" (not failed) after half an hour. The temps under full load are about 38°C fans @ 12V and 41°C fans @ 7V...I will try to raise the vcore a bit to get prime stable at 2,8ghz...for now

yea its a 0610, i'm sure it's coldbugged as all CCB1E/CCBBE are i believe. i would have better luck with chilled water.

When its said all CCBBE are coldbugged, just how bad?
I guess, what can one expect out of a coldbugged CCBBE if you were to put it on chilled water? or just brought the temps down further, maybe just to 0°C?

Some are coldbugged pretty bad. That's why I am holding onto my CCBWE that does 2.85 on water.

i think you would get your best results from a CCBBE at about 20-25c. i believe their coldbug starts to crap out between 0-20c

yeah, I had a CCBWE 0546MPMW that did 2.9 on air, 2.8 stable. Wanted to keep it in hopes of a "deep freeze" overclock, but needed the money, so its gone. :(
