Any chance we could see a 1m run closer to 3.5? Seeing 3.5 in the first post then a mere 3.2 for 3d is somewhat disappointing :( AMD needs to step up.

He's talkin' about the DFI board mate :up:Quote:

I thought he made it pretty clear he has no interest in running SPi. Is there some reason why so many are repeatedly requesting this? Is there something in particular you are looking for? :D
Well I can say for sure I'll be getting the 9850 to go with my vapo. So that'll be $250 more spent on a phenom and a total of $1000 spent just tweaking phenoms since their debut. If it doesn't do well under cold I'm gonna be :mad: and :brick: ...

Yes they look for fuel to bring down the thread with why run this at this speed when c2d runs this etc...im not interested ;)

Again? Were you using the DFI M2R or M2RS?
Tony check your PM M8:)

To ALL
Im running at 3.2 as its EASY, I don't have time to tweak the tits out of this CPU tonight to get it stable at 3.5 for 3D. Its already 2:14am and im back in the workshop about to run cinebench 10 for ya.
I have a feeling I will get 3.5 3d stable, the issue is the NB frequency has to rise along with it to keep the performance good...this takes time.
I merely put the DFI in bold... THIS WOULD BE SHOUTING
Is it still difficult to pump the L3 Cache/NB clocks?
Are you keeping the HTT clock ~ 2Ghz or keeping it closer to NB clocks?
playin with lots of things...the issue is time today, I need 3 to 5 days to get this CPU sweet but I have a ton of other things to do
Just like SuperPi some don't understand that either:shakes:Quote:

CPU-Z call it Revision DR-B3, Everest call it Stepping B3 that's why I'm confused :rofl:Quote:

Soon(I hope), you will see mine in my Sig. :up:
What you think, those b3 unlocked babies will like -100'c cascades ;) ?
Give me few days... ok, few hours ;]Quote:

Props for all the work Tony! Must be gettin damn tired by now though. Get some sleep so you can hammer away again tomorrow!
BT, any chance when you phase this baby, will you test 'higher' temps, say around -30?
Nope, two Phenoms and temps below -40/-50 = platform can't boot :(
NIce clock on that B3... congrats :up:
I'm still puzzled about the voltage. CPU-Z in the first post claims 1.52, AMD OverDrive on page four shows 1.3 volts.
