Got a couple of 144's in on thursday. Got one in a system last night and went to town. CAB2E 0540 FPMW, Neo2 Plat w/ 1.c sideeffect.

Still working on it, runs Prime95 stable for hours at 315, won't even hit windows at 320 so we might have a bit more headroom.

lol rufus, i meant the 148 is nowhere near the 146 even though there same steppings ;)

Sorry tatts. thx for the Screen from teh 148 CABYE 0540FPBW.
Good clockers. Nice clocks. Not so good as my CABNE but very good for a Productionweek.

no problem ;)
you saked for results of a 148 so you got a ss of 146 & 148 with same steppings to compare them :D
11-12-2005, 05:14 PM

Both are very good, i will eventually buy an 148 CABYE 0540 FPBW pretested at 3Gig and 1,48Vc on Aircooling next Week.My HS sucks next Week i will take him off. hoping for better Temps.

Not so good for an Vapochill cooled Opteron.
Here´s a little Steppinglist from Germany.With all Opterons available for S939. ;)

OSA148DAA5BN
CAB2E 0540 FPMW
Batch 0166

Still working on getting this one tuned in but so far completed OCCT @ 2800 (10 x 280 1:1) with 1.32v.

Question I have is that the CPU seems to be running hot at 47C max during test. According to Central Brain Identifier Max T Case is 63C with a Thermal Offset of 12C. This compares to my old 3700 Sandy at 59C T Case and a 3C Offset.

Would this explain the high temps and if so how should I account for the 12C offset?

Are new chips really falling over at this low MHz 1:1? I know there's something in my system that's not letting me run 166 divider on my CAB2E (that would mean 2.5-3-3 ~250 on TCCD, which is fine) but is fine with 133 (2-2-2 ~200) - could it really be the chip?

165 Cabye 0540 Fpbw

Reached 3000, nothing exceptionnal for this stepping, but it's the first time for me in the AMD world.

I ran Prime 10 hours last night at 296*10 (same vcore)

RAM timings are pretty relaxed (running 166 divider); I'll try to run 200 or 180 when the CPU has reached its limits.

Those opterons have an unusual behavior: Usually when I need to bump the Vcore I know the chip limit is 200-300 mhz higher. Here I had to raise from default Vcore at 2700 (And thought it would be difficult to reach 3000 with "raisonable" voltages), but it's still going! Very impressive chips indeed.

lower batch number does not guaranteed better overclock, few weeks ago I bought three 148 cabne 0528 but the one with highest batch clocked higher, required less vcore, and with MaxTcase of 67'C instead of 63'C like the rest of the lower batch.

do you believe in MaxTcase? There are Opteron's with MaxTcase 55 that do 3000+ on air / water... My two 146 CABYE 0540 FPMW with batch 0001 and 0230 will come in monday or tuesday. I'll let you know!

but higher isn't better either. i'm the owner of a CABNE 0530APMW #0001. it does 2.9ghz with 1.425v, not the best, but also definitly not bad ;)

Not sure I'm getting your answer...I was wondering if your water block was good enough (or your WC system). Of course if your room temperature is around 30C that could explain your results ;)

Ok.
Did you try to measure max. T-case and thermal offset with CBI or another program - I don't remember the name?

Maybe it has to do with the core/IHS.

Thx...I already got the CBID ;) ...maxtcase is 59°C as I said before thermal offset is 3°C...

Hmm i got 2x 146 same stepping fpbw one has MaxTcase 63 and the another MaxTcase 63

1. MaxTcase 61c = much better of them about 80mhz+ more 24/7 speed 3040mhz+
2. MaxTcase 63c = very hard to go higher than 2950mhz super pi m1.

Lower MaxTcase gooder?

i dunno, but i think that maxT thing is all BS anyways, my opty read 57°, but it clocks up to 2.9ghz on air and stable.

After 2x8 hours of SP2004 I can get my 146 stable at 3ghz at 1,408V...but not stable at 3,1ghz with 1,5V...

It might be that the temps go too high @ 1.5V and SP fails. @ 1.4V temps still are ok and that is why it passes....

I probably missed it but how do you see the MaxTcase?

Hey man, np. :)

My 2 146's shipped today from Alternate. Hope to get them pretty soon, and that they're from a good batch.
Thx again for the help. :toast:

I got an Opteron 146 PIB from Monarch earlier:
CABYE 0540FPMW #87 Max t-case 63c
I've only had it on water cooling with a Maze3 block so far.(IHS still on)
Stock voltage (1.40v in bios) got it upto 2800MHz stable.
1.425 2850MHz stable
1.475 2900MHz stable
1.525 2950MHz looks stable but i'm still testing.
I'm pleased with it so far, snagged it when it was $159USD ;)
My goal as many others is 3Ghz which i think will happen with more testing and tuning.

Still testing this, Prime95 stability is important. Using Big Typhoon.

Heres mine. Went to 2.83 @ stock voltage. Heres my max on air, dont want to go higher till I get better cooling.

I can't read all this stuff....Any ideas about "good" steppings in 170 or 165???

My 146 Opty is sitting at my houes waiting for me to come home and install it. I will get back Wednesday and hopefully have some numbers up by thursday night. I also got my RETAIL 146 for 159. Man, what a steal. If this thing even hits 2.7ghz, my 3500+ venice is out the door fo shizzle. From the sounds of things I am looking closer to 2800-2900 without hitting voltage even. MY lonely Venice stopped @ 2550 with stock vcore.

If you get a CABYE or CABNE I can almost gaurantee 2.7-2.8 with stock voltage. This is by far the most stable ive had. The better silicon quality really makes these opterons so worthy of overclocking.

Thanks for posting Prime95 results dnottis. Looking good :)

all right.

CABNE 0530APMW 2.9 ghz stable with only 1.45 volts
CABYE 0540FPMW 2.9 ghz testing with only 1.45 volts

i can get it OCCT stable at 3 ghz with 1.47 volts but can't get it to prime for longer than 10 minutes.

am I board limited or am just having awesome bad luck (2.9 is awesome but can't get to 3.0 which is bad)?

After a 2 x 8hours of SP2004 @ 3ghz 1.424V I`m now able to run it at same speed with 1.408V :toast: But can`t get it stable at 3.1ghz even at 1.5V...and can`t get to windows at 3.2ghz with 1.55V... :slapass:

Well Kohan got his 146 today. went over to his house and clocked it up on stock cooling.

It did 2.9ghz with 1.45volts in bios which relates to 1.4 in windows. At 1.375 (windows) it is stable up to 2.85ghz

the stepping is 0540 CABYE.. which as most of you have said are the golden chips and this one didnt disapoint.

btw this was all done on stock cooling and thermal pad. I imagine with some better cooling it will do 3ghz stable with 1.45volts.. MAYBE will need 1.5-1.55 for 3ghz.. Either way its one hell of a chip..

for reference, chip was had at monarch on thursday via retail box.

I will be getting my 146 from monarch tommorow, baring FedEx continuing to be a-holes.

im getting 146 0540 from tankguys tomoro ... fedex as well.. :) ... now i dunno whether to keep my 165 @2.7Ghz... or use the 146 @ 3Ghz... :rolleyes:

for most things the 165 would be better.. for 3dmark and super pi the 146 would be better. so i guess it maters waht ur doing.

soon enough everythign will be multi-threaded atleast to some extent and it wont be a contest.. but for now its highly application dependant.
