Im noticing something similar, my redlines on a Venice run at 240 with 3.2v, but on this 150 I get Pi errors when they go above 200 with same voltage.Quote:

Well its really scaring me now...wouldn't even boot at 210! Gave me a long beep to let me know it was angry too. Is it possible to fry your ram without upping the Volts at all? My preamble is auto at 9.5ns
You may have to clear the cmos to get it to boot again.
You'd be better off to change the settings in windows with a64tweaker and then run pi or something. That way if you do something that makes your system unbootable the changes aren't saved after you restart.
Interesting that it wouldn't boot at 210 since you had it at 208 earlier. You may have changed something else maybe.
Its been a long time coming, had to wait for something better than my 2Gb Geil value but the Gskill saved the day!
3Ghz was a piece of cake with my GSkill LEs, its a CABYE 0536GPMW:

Thats at 1.64V ish set in the bios, load temps were 44 degrees, should be some headroom in both the chip and the RAM, not had a fiddle with lower voltages yet.
Best £120 ever spent :D FX-57 beater ;)
Cooling is:
LRWW waterblock
AquaXtreme 50z pump
2x120mm Swiftech rad (bargain from OcUK itself)
2x120mm fans at 5Vs (silent :D)
1/2" Tygon tubing
Well I got it booting at 220 again. Anytime I try taking it over that with clockgen it locks up. Take a look at that screenie i just posted and let me know if anything looks suspicious if you wouldn't mind. Preamble of 9.5ns on auto seems a little high doesn't it?
Does anybody know what causes those **'s in a64tweak, I know it means it's not reading the actual values? Mine did that at first but I can' t remember how I fixed it. I had to get a different version or something. Unfortunately my system is rma'd at the moment so I can't check.

Not sure if v6 works but .31 should.
Uh, theres a lot of stuff that looks wrong in there...are you sure that its reading them properly?Quote:

The link I posted above is for dl a new clockgen. That version doesn't work with dfi or something. Also I never was able to use clockgen now that I think about it. There is a clockgen on the mobo cd maybe that one works or speedfan, systool I'm pretty sure does.
Probably the best way to test memory speed is to use memtest. It's in the bios just choose memtest enable. I like a bootable cd better since sometimes my bios would freak out and lose it's settings when heavy testing with the bios version.
ANOTHER SLOW 8M TIME
guys i am telling you there is something wrong here when these CPUs are benchmarked with 8M and 32M times are slow
PLS do your tests and compare to your old Venice results
aaaaaaaargh

Edit: Could this be a PSU issue?
don't you mean you have #1 on the way ahahaha.Quote:

Just tested this amazing clocker..
3.0 ghz (300 x 100) @ 1.39 V
cpu = Opteron146 CABNE 0530
Ram = Patriot TCCD pc4800 XBLK, 300 @ 2.5-3-3

Well I went ahead and last week Wed. I broke down and order one just in case I was able to get a good one but guess I lucked out so far but havnt got the time to test it :( Wife on my case.. Trying to hide this from her too lol. :slapass: :slapass:
But stepping so far its a CABNE 0528 GPMW 500255 Looks like I got a good stepping now only if I can test it and able to get the results as others. I did get some OCZ pc 3500 2X512 to test with too
So would the ballistix 2 Gigs or the ocz 1 Gig be better to start with??
i have this problem many times tooQuote:

i put the pc off like 2 minutes without all power(swith in the psu off)
2 min later boot and go to bios
dont need to make changes, only save
reboot and again to bios without go to SO
same thing- save and reboot
now go to SO and confirm if all ok.
with me this is result when the system frezes or reboot in full load :slap:
try, works with me most of the times
dont cust a thing
good luck
good cpu :toast:Quote:

If you change a setting in tweaker and the system locks up it means it's too tight and you shouldn't do that anymore. Could you take a screen of tweaker when your system first boots before you change anything? If it still says cas latency 5 and you got *'s in all the fields you need a different version.
no probs here bare in mind 2x256MB slower than 2x 512MB hehQuote:

Well tested it at 11X220 just like my x2 4400 was and the spi times were about the same.. So 1m and 8m was the same as the 148 was a bit faster in 8m tho.. So far i'm able to boot 11X 240 and run spi and everything ok.. 1.4v tho.. Thats with the Ocz so tight timings..
heh.. yes. one number one please! :DQuote:

and now that everyone is getting "slow" times, i'm gonna have to see what's up, if mine does it too. i have noticed that my memtest bandwidth is quite a bit lower than my friend's venice at similar settings.
San diegos do have lower memtest bandwidth than venice - it's normal :)
test
Well after a hour i'm at 11X260=2860 at 1.36v and 2.8 ddr Had to put in the Ballistix tho.. So far i'm very impressed with it as I never had one that overclock so much and has so much left, I hope lol..
So its 11X40 with ocz tight timings or 11X260 with the ballistix with 33338..
Still testing.
quick question:
when i get FATAL ERROR: Rounding was 0.5, expected less than 0.4, what does that usually indicate?
