Lemme correct you. That stepping should be the "newest"! (not the best) Overclocking is entirely dependent on LUCK - not stepping or week.

Having a fixed memory controller after week 46 (according to oc anyway) should give u some better luck though eh!

My week 37 3200+ maxes out at 2500 1.625Vcore
Just tried a week 47 3000+. The darn thing maxed out at about 2400 and would not do better at any Vcore...
Messed up my Windows too..... hahaha... Ghost time !

One thing I did notice was the heat. The 3000+ week 47 was much cooler than my 3200+ week 37 :toast: but that did not do it any good.

Had a week47 that would need 1.65 just to hit 2.5. I dunno about the memory controller but the overclock sucked.

Here's another 3200+ 0448 SPBW from Monarch with the MSI Neo2 board. This is with the stock cooler at stock voltage.

Ram: 1 GB G.Skill "LE" kit.
PSU: PCP&C Turbocool 510.

Gskill is the :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana:

One more on stock voltage

Nice! :thumbsup: (Lucky Bastard.... :brick: )

Retail. Franky 4 Finger got his from Monarch also on the same day.

Ordered a 3000+ from Monarch today. We'll see how that one does......

Good luck. Did they provide you with the serial numbers/letters on the chip?

Didn't think to ask? (shrug) Just ordered the OEM chip via the internet

hhhmmm you tempted me with a new 3000 / 3200+ :p:

must have been unlucky
Just installed my 0447UPAW and it's been priming so far at 2430 a 1.4vcore with the default cooler
