I'll try that later. I'm still trying to push it higher if I can :)
However when burning in, I let it burn it at 1.15V. Anything below that and prime get errors.

Holy... what MHz was that at???Quote:

cool, what kind of cooling r u using?Quote:

1.75v with these things? Holy crap. What kind of cooling?Quote:

I cant believe how hot these things run.
Thats on Mach II GT. Yup those things do run hot. My evap temp went down to about -43C for the first time. Usually the lowest it will go is about -48C, and thats with a FX-55 at the same volt.

Buy two of these, and you could start a pizzeria. Worse then the infamous Pressie.
I would VERY much like to get a statement from a AMD employee concerning this issue.
My chip does 2850Mhz for benching @ 1.65v on water. I feel like i have to give it a run in my cooler. With a NewCastle 3000Mhz 1.81v i have -44c on evap. (actual temp)
Probably I would get like -30c .. :stick:
I think if I had water cooling or phase change, I could go faster with this chip. But at 1.55 to 1.57 volts I can't complain. I'm slowing working my way up. currently burning in at 2820 with the voltage I just mentioned. Temps top out between 53 to 56c.
mine 3500+ Caa2c 0504GPMW is rock stable 2650 with 1.55 and also stable at 2700 with 1.64. I doing some burning now and try to hit 2750 stable with the same volt.Max temp at 2750 with full load is 48c with custom watercooling but i am waiting my mach 2 to be regassed and then i will give it a shot.
Are you guys serious about this burning in stuff? How are you doing it? From what i've read and from my understanding of CPU's, burning in is nothing more then a myth and CPU's dont start performing or overclocking better with time. You can "burn in" the thermal conductant that you use on the heatsink to provide better transference of heat and thus giving you better temps and possibly a higher overclock but what exactly on the chip itself would you "burn in"?Quote:

It just seems like a noobs errand considering i've never seen any constructive material to show it actually works.
I'm a bit skeptical too but read this:Quote:

Anyone with this stepping CAA2C 0504 GPMW on Phase Change? In 3 days im going to have one for my Mach I r404a modded.
Is that one of the few methods out there or are there many methods that you guys use to burn in a CPU? Have any of them given back real results for you?Quote:

Any more links to other methods that have been proven to work effectively?
Mine is a good one I think. I got it doing 220x10 (so I have more bandwith cant let BH-5 goto waste) on only 1.21v. 1.18v is memtest test5 stable and ran stress CPU for a while but prime faild almost instantly. So 1.21v it is (the voltage is according to smart gaurdian)
Even on stock (1.5v) its just waay to hot on the stock cooler. Idle temps are like 50C :eek:
So I've ordered my XP-120 and will be testing upper limits of RAM and CPU in the holidays. :banana:
These chipd seem to really shine under phase and water, where you an get that damn heat away from the chip. They seem to scale well with voltage.
Mine ran just fine at 2.6 GHz stock VCore = 1.46V on my MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum /SLI. I burned in overnight.
I think at 1.8volts your gonna hit 3ghzQuote:

you would think putting in more would get you more speed...
but these things seem to generate a ridiculous amount of heat once you up the voltage past 1.7 volts... (at least to me it has).
maybe i need a triple cascade then i could overclock this thing to 3.4 ghz :)
Same here. Past 1.7V it generates a lot of heat.
good thing i think i just got a good deal on a WC setup.
Looks like I have the only CAA2C 0504 GPAW here...hope it still OC's like the rest of yours
yes they do i sold my 3500+ CAA2C 0505 APMW which did 2805mhz at 1.6v stable since the buyer was willing to pay basically what i paid for it minus $10 = AUD$400 and kept my CAA2C 0507 GPMW which needs 0.08-0.12v more vcore to do same settings max is around 2838mhz at 1.75v which load temp = 62-66C hehQuote:
