Well, I will be happy with 2.6 - 2.7 GHZ.
Hey guys, After reading through this article i went home and ripped my HSF of and took a look, its a Ada3500dep4as Caa2c 0506fpmw. Now my problem is i caint get this thing to clock at all. Dont know why?
My system setup is a DFI NF4-SLI-DR board and kingston HyperX PC3500 Ram.
Anyone can help for a overclock on this machine?
Well give us an idea of where you're at. The key here is cooling and Voltage. These get hot and love Volts. I'm on 2.55 on stock air and 1.504V. But when I use my Chilled air :) I got her up to like 2.63 still on 1.5 V
Its running stock timing and voltages at the moment, when i add the volts to 1.5 and run the mem at 3.0 and bump the fsb to 220 with a htt ratio of 4x it doesnt post. i caint even get into mem test.
Give us full system specs. Do you have all the power connectors plugged in?
I got one of these CAA2C (AS) chips a couple days ago, it does 2.7ghz on stock volts, im running at 2.6ghz now.
Temps are very high using Thermaltake Silent Boost HSF (67c load).
Im quite sure this chip has a crap mem controller though, 250 @ 1T wont work no matter what i try. 2T is fine though.
yea I can't run 2-2-2-10 under any conditions 1T. SO I Run 2-3-2-X and run a divider. But I was able to get some 3dmark runs in at over 2.6 GHZQuote:

Ive got a tad over 2.7ghz @ 1.55v but i wasnt loving the temps (im using low RPM air) so im going to keep that for benching only and stay @ stock volts for everyday usage since im getting decent OC on it anyway.
I knocked my HT mult down to 4x just until i sort out my max @ stock volts. Im guessing as long as the HT speed is above 800 its not going to affect performance ? Can somebody tell me how high can you set the HT speed until probs start showing ?
With all the new BIOS that came out since 310, what would be the best BIOS to use with my setup? 3500+ ClawHammer, OCZ platinum EL rev2, DFI nF4 SLI-DR.
Thanks :D
I know, I know, I should try them all!! but still, help me out here. :p:
Ever since 310 my 3500+ CH is doing worst. I mean i lost my 310 bios o/c of 2600mhz, even if i go back to 310 its still not the same. I suspect it maybe the mem controller but i just got a 3200 venice to play with and im getting a FX55 sandy next week. Of all bios after 310, 510-3fix got me good results.Quote:

btw mine is running all stock for now but auto voltage is running 1.3v's. don't ask me why but i'm not argueing with no instability so far.
Well I've been using mine for 6 months now with no problems running this chip with an XP-90 in all games and OS stable 2540 with stock volts. My temp issue turned out to be the bios is screwed up. I got that fixed and with an extra thermistor at the end of the processor connected to a fan controller I'm getting a reading of 39c idle and 51c full load OC'd. Anything higher than 2550 or so up to 2630 requires more voltage which I don't think is worth scortching a a nice cip. Man bandwidth is crazy on everest with this chiped overclocked with my value ram:
6180 Read
2210 Write
49 latency
I have yet to see what this will overclock stable to during the cold winter months of Dec and Jan.
recent Futurmark scored 1163 on cpu.

Welcome to XS. I hate my claw. won't do 2-2-2-X under any freaking circumstance
These must have been FX-55's that failed somehow.
Thanks for the welcome. I had a Winchester 3000+ and never could get it to do 2-2-2-X. 2-3-3-X was the best I could get the memory controller to do and could never get it passed 220 1:1. I thought it was the RAM or the MOBO and was actually pretty ticked off. It was also one of the Winnies that had tremendous problems passing prime. I honestly think the chip was bad from the get go.Quote:

I get better game performance with the higher mem bandwidth @ 250, and it seems that either the RAM or the mem controller starts to flake out around 255 1:1. Got another with the exact same stepping as mine for my brother with almost the exact same results. :cool:
I've wondered that myself. Could be as simple as a bad cache bank that just needed disabling.Quote:

My 3500+ NC died and AMD sent me this for the RMA. Havent spent a lot of time OCing it yet. But it all I can say is I had to Freeze my 3500 NC to get these speeds :)

Well I may be a bit late to this thread. But these chips rock.
Hy there!
I'm getting my CPU traded by a 350+ CAA2C, but i'm not shure if its a good deal!
My chip is a 3000+ venice and did this screenie http://valid.x86-secret.com/cache/60768.png with 1.8vcore. And after i manage to get 3056mhz :rolleyes:
And can do 2.8ghz with only 1.58vcore.
But, i want to trade it with a CAA2C, but i'm afraid that it doesn't do the same results has my 3000+.
its this one:
ADA3500DEP4AS
CAA2C 0505APMW
1213644B50185
Can someone help me eith this dilema ?
Post some results with theese chips please :confused2
Jabardo OUT
HaZtA
Yea, we figured they were failed FX's when we all sprung for them. I got a Z instead of a 2 :(. We'll see how far I can go with my new Freezer Pro coming soon, maybe I'll get to 2.7@2-3-3-8...I've found that 2-2-2-8 isnt too much of an improvement

Yo nice post guys, i just bought a gateway gt4010 and it has a claw hammer 3500+ with these spec on the chip

WHAT THE HELL IS IT, im all confuse:confused: , could anyone please help me, i new to this, especialy idenifing amd chips, i think i have a good chip???:stick:
thx...:D
