Summer here and it's hot so BIOS temp around 43C load, I'm using it for 24/7 I don't mind to bother tighten the memory timings since I need to wait my OCZ PC5000 back from RMA

anyone given the 0523 week venices a shot yet?
i finally found a shop close to my home where they wanne chk the stepping for me
they just received about 10x 0520 GPEW Venice 3200+ CPU's...
been lookin/googlin around, but cant find much about this stepping yet... anyone know if theyre any good?
is there also some other code of the stepping that i should pay attention too? (since they all have the same 0520 GPEW code allready :/)
If you can Mastakilla try and find one same as my 3200 in my sig, bloody awesome :D
2.8 Gig torture+ stable with only ~ 1.51 Vcore reported in windows :woot:
the first post 3000+ Venice stepping seem like no update pass 2months ago...
:(
yea it's been a while since teh last update :(
Just got my 3200+ LBBLE 0519 APAW 10 minutes ago i'll slap it in and report back.
got alot of testing to go and some ram issues but ill do my best.
this will be water cooled.
i dont see any week 19 in the list if anyone has any results thus far for these post'em
Gl :)
2.5ghz 1.39v
250mhz 1:1
3x HTT
30 Idle
37-ish load under Prime95
did the big Overclocking god FINALLY smile on me ? Did i get a good one ? ohhh let us pray on this and return in a while with some more results!

Waiting for more Mhz! :toast:
With those temps you certainly have alot of headroom for voltage.
GJ Lestat I hope you got a good one! Maybe 3GHz on air;) Just take it slow! I know when I got my chip I was going higher and higher on the first day but it really didnt like it. It took me at least 1mo to get a good oc.
yeah i was just thinking about the whole "break in period" i figure tonight i'll Fold and/or Prime and let her get beaten up real good ;)
2.6ghz 1.45v
260mhz 1:1 but really loose ram cuz this OCZ stuff needs more volts and the board only gives 2.85 and i cant afford a ddr booster right now.
speaking of ram, this is something ive never asked anyone. and i know the answer or atleast i would like to think i do.
1:1 you need to raise the voltage as you go (atleast on non TCCD stuff) but when you run it on a multi say 166mhz the voltage dont matter does it until you get your ram back up to its rated speed.
so basically dropping the ram to 166 i can pretty much throw the lacking vdimm out the window for a while cant i ? since yout not really running the ram at lets say 260mhz its actually... errr ... 212 ? i think the math calculates out to ?
i was hoping i wouldnt have to make such a jump from 2.5ghz to 2.6ghz in cpu voltage but hey its still much less than my newcastle which wouldnt even do 2.6ghz.
I'd go with a blood sacrafice of a Noob to guarantee an awesome overclock. Why take a chance on quiet prayer when your victim's screams would be so much louder? ;)Quote:

ok well T.M.I. HAHAHA i love being the sicko of the bunch.
ok well i am having an issue here and i must assume its the mobo.
right now it appears as if 2.6ghz isnt Pi stable. im getting Not convergience error. so i upped the voltage to 1.475 then 1.5v
ok now the bug... i have the bios set to 1.475v yet its only 1.45v in windows. i though ok just goofy reading. so i am at 1.5v yet its still being reported as 1.45v in windows by speedfan cpu-z and core center.
wierd this board has never had issues going up to 1.7v ... hhmm..
Is this some sort of a Venice bug ?
CPU-Z is actually jumping from 1.425 to 1.45 i HATE seeing that but seems like my Vcore is locked ?
If i apply the vcore with clockgen it wont change either.
im having the same problem. i just flashed to the latest bios too... wierd. anyone else??Quote:

peace perc,
Are you testing with a Digital Multi-Meter? Don't trust anything else.
Perc i found the issue.
once you hit 1.45v you need to use the % over VID like 3% 5% and so on.
so right now i am at 1.5v + 3.3% over VID
cpu-z says its like 1.55 ... maybe im using 5% i forget.
CPU-Z is showing some really floaty voltages i really dont like that. 1.52 then it goes 1.536 then 1.55
im also at 2650 1:1
32c idle 44c Prime95 load
i need a better 939 AGP based board. grr anyone got any suggestions.
dfi nf3 ultra-d or msi k8n neo2 platinumQuote:

i was looking at the ultra d last week but wasnt having much luck find alot of good stuff to say about it. It's like a mobo DFI put out and not many people have it.
ill have to look around some more.
seems like up to 2.5ghz im ok with default voltages but anything above that i really gotta crank the voltage.
but then again i just got it 8 hours ago so there is alot of break in period left.
what do you guys suggest i use to really pbreak it in properly just let prime run non stop or fold non stop ?
Has anyone else found the burnin effect to actually work with Venice chips :confused:
When i first started with this 0517DPMW it would hardlock at 2775Mhz in 2 systems.
After 1 day of stressCPU @ 1.55v 2700Mhz, it is now stable at 2820Mhz and hardlocks at 2830Mhz
After 2 further days of stressCPU/SuperPI and 1.55-1.65v, the CPU now does 2930Mhz SuperPi with no sign of hardlocking :stick:

I can also run it at 2900Mhz and run 1M superpi and that's it. this is on an xp-120. right now i got the cpu burning with stresscpu at 2800Mhz. i'm at work and hope that it doesn't crash when i get home tonight. 2900Mhz 100% stable will be a dream come true for me if this method works :).
Its a 3200+ 0517DPMW :toast: 1.64v above 2.8Ghz

2900Mhz fully stable now, 2930Mhz superPI :banana:
