already did but my ic7 maxes at 257-260 (maxes at the same spot with 2x256MB BH5 too). Running 2-2 is just too much for the mem. controller on those boards (even more so with 2x512).Quote:
can you test this in a dual channel p4 system to see how far it will go in that.
Obvioulsy on A64 boards the board/mem controller ain't limiting the OC that much.
Obvously.....and damn, stop giving me reasons to switch to an A64..... :idea:Quote:

You have to wait until the Athlon 64 processors to mature. Give a year, or two. =)
It might help, but there's nothing that says I HAVE too. ;) I would NEVER wait that long anyways.....I'm gonna wait for both S939 and LGA775 to mature before I decide which way I'm gonna swing this time. ;)Quote:

Macci do you have a fan over the EB? The stuff OC's much better when you cool it
Steve
Could everyone whos got them post their memtest error free speeds please?
with 2.5 2 2 etc please (5/4 or 1/1) whats the max stable you can get with what voltage...
This stuff is crazy!
one question
3200EB, 3500EB and 3700EB use same chips? or just binned faster?
I've actually been wondering this myself. Anyone got some PC3200 EB that they've overclocked? I've seen reviews for the 3500 and 3700, and I was just wondering how the 3200 faired along side them.Quote:

Friend of mine had his 3200EB at like 240 or 245Mhz 3-2-2
Hmm, while those are impressive results in themselves (considering the performance of this stuff at CAS3) I think I'd still be more inclined to go with some PC3500 when/if the time comes.
ya but volts? i got up to 3.3vQuote:

3.2 I think. And it was on P4
Very good macci, wont they do more with higher voltage?
its incredibley high to begin with ,
:toast:
I think I am gonna snatch up some 3500 or 3700 eb along with a new nf3 250 aopen or shuttle mobo when they come out.
The Aopen NF3-150 is pretty impressive by itself
Any update on the EB Macci with running more Volt's through it?

Then you might as well wait for the s900 to mature also since it will replace the s939 early next year.Quote:

s900
or you could replace a s939 board with a pci express s939 in a few months :p:
people always talking about waiting it's silly imo,
who buy a new cpu for a old board ? i would say more people buy a new board for a older chip more often.
:stick:
anyone know if these are made in 2x256mb version and if they clock better than 2x512mb?
2x256 do clock better than 2x512Quote:

@ Yuri: that's wrong - the name "Socket900" is just for generalizing the S.9xx
---> Socket900 = Socket939 and Socket940
because: German Hardware-board
use this when u aren't able to read german ;)
it's a little bit long, but there are a lot of brains of CPU-designing there ;)
and it would be a "back-step"....why AMD should delete again some pins after adding about 200 to the S754 ? ;)
they could simply left them without function ;)
Don't get me wrong here, I'm NOT one of those people that'll keep waiting, and you kinda blew what I said out of proportion. I'm already in the process of building my water cooled 3.2C (that I'm hopefully gonna push to 4GHz) and I'm gonna be picking up my next-gen video card in a couple months.Quote:

I agree that by the time I'm done with my system as I see it today there will be a few new toys out there that I'll want.....and I realise that. The understand that the market will always be like this, but If I'm already working on a system then I don't see what harm there is in saing I want to wait until some of the newer technology matures. At least to give myself a chance to USE my new setup once it's done. ;)
Just purchased some EB3700. I got a couple of 512 sticks.
Gunna throw them in my DFI Infinity Ultra.
'Cause I'm still on nForce2 :p:
If you gents want, I can post results too.
-thecarguy
That's what the thread is for. Pimp away!
LOL.. i have about 3-4 threads with my results in them... do i need post them here too? lol
2x256mb OCZ 3700EB, maxes out with 3-3-2-10-11-16 at 256mhz 5:4. (7x256mhz, 330HTT) 37sec super pi. Using Athlon 64 3200+ C0 Clawhammer and K8N-Pro.
245mhz with 3-2-2-11...
OH... 2.9V ;)
