hi mate those CPUs are not mine

i sold my CABYE 0536GPMW this morning actually as i ordered a dual core Opteron 165......but those steppings were sold locally here in Sydney through Pluscorp

Thanks for sharing, very nice optys. I think we have a new stepping we all should keep our eye on now. ;)

Thanks man! Question, what kind of voltage did you give it? Mine was at like 1.84v but I dont think it needed that much. The one thing I was surprised about is that it booted into windows at 3.5ghz and wouldnt even boot at 3.4ghz. I guess it just needed a little breaking in. LOL Next step is to get some spi runs at 3.6ghz +.

I'm testing a Opteron 146 0530GPMW from Monarch right now.

I'm thinking something might be wrong with my mobos temp sensor because it seems kind of low. With my Venice 3000, and this Opty146, I can't get near over 50c on load. I'm using an MSI Neo4 Platinum (latest bios), with an XP-90, and a medium speed Panaflo. Should I push my vcore to 1.65-1.7v?

Max tcase: 57c

Opteron 146
2800 @ 1.5v (33c idle, 42 load)

I've tried voltages up to 1.6 and it dosn't seem to get more than 2.83 on air.

my opty is doing the same as a few of your guys. i got it spi 8m stable (haven't tried 32M yet) at 2.9ghz, but have been trying to get it to 2.95mhz, but i'm up to 1.64V (1.66 if you go by bios settings), but the temps don't increse much under load. the most i have seen it at 2.95mhz is about 44°C. i dunno if i should push the volts more - i'm on air, but my temps don't go up with vcore increases... it's weird. Any advise for me? :)

Like myself you might find out that temps aren't a problem, however increasing volts only has diminishing returns and then nothing. Keep pushing the volts. If you're under 50c at load, I wouldn't worry much.

ok heres my cabge(yeah i know)0536vpaw on massive volts, but decent temps. will bench @ 2850 ish if i set vcore to like 1.8 and temps never go above 52C. on air. so at least i can say one good thing about it. scores about 1000 points less than my 3800 x2 toledo in 3dmark05 at same speed, which i find a little strange because of the l2. nice maxTcase right? ive never seen one lower.

check this one out...prime stable at 1.42v 3GHz (image works when you click on it and then refresh the page ;) )

Glad to see I don't even have to post my results :) Already done for me hehehe :toast:

Haven't had a chance to muck around with mem yet, got the next 2days off though so will look into it then :)

Talk about low temps, this cpu is alot different from other Opteron 146s more vcore >1.6v usually seens pretty high 50s/60Cs temps but look at this

I'm having som major issues, can't figure out the right timings n stuff.

see here: http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...ad.php?t=78260

But this is my best so far. Old install of windows, d2ol running ect. 52c load

Why does your cpuz load all weird? it says you have a 130nm die named sledgehammer :p:

heh yea its just whatever version i've had on my comp. Not to worried about it lol

I just need to figure out whats going on. I tried some BH-5/6 (could be either or) and that didn't change much. :confused:

I think i got mine pretty stable at 2.9ghz @ 1.55V x 1.072 (1.6616V bios): occt torture - 6+ hrs (while sleeping), 32m spi stable (while trolling forums - using my pc).

http://img427.imageshack.us/img427/3...able3jl.th.jpg

I was all the way up to 2.95GHz @ 1.55 x 1.120 (1.736V bios) - 1.69V according to smart guardian w/ load temps of about the same, but it wasn't 32m stable, but was 8m stable. dunno if i want to push it more.... i think i'm happy at 2.9 :)

I can't for the life of me get hold of a CABYE or CABNE stepping in the UK... so frustrating... :(

Are there any e-stores that have any of these 144's or 146's in stock (CABNE or CABYE)? I've been searching all over and can only find a single 146 CABYE on eBay with a possibly unreliable seller!

Anywhere that I could possibly order about 3 144's or some 146's? Monarch is out of stock until end of November, eWiz doesn't have 939 100's ... any suggestions? Or do I just have to wait until, oh, December?

So after my neo-2 died on me, I am now running on my old abit av8 until I get it rma'd. I have installed a aquagate mini r120 instead of my zalman 7700. Now My temps are down about 10 to 15 degrees at load from the zalman, and I can OCCT at 3100mhz At just under 1.6v.

I'm still having alot of trouble with my ram timings getting superpi stable at this speed.
Here is a screenie of my occt 3100mhz.

Remember, the temp sensor on these av8's is at least 12 degrees to high on the cpu, so we are probably right under 50C loaded here.

Rich, there's this guy in Belgium, Computersmsa, that sells stuff on his forum.
Just got a 144 cabne from him and it's running 3ghz as I type.
He's a good guy he'll prolly help you out, if it wasn't for him I would have never gotten hold of a decent opteron.

Find him in the members list http://xtremesystems.org/forums/member.php?u=8394

He'll be getting some more cpus in very soon.

Got a 146 CABYE 0536GPMW from ewiz the other day. Benched this morning. Running 100% stable @ 280x10 1.55v. Temps seem high 58-60C on a crappy water cooling setup. Might just be my nf3 Neo2 reporting wrong. Maybe IHS needs removal?

I've got a DFI NF4 SLI coming Mon so maybe some better results.

Same stepping here, i'm seeing similar temps. 52-52c full load on stock cooler. @ 2552mhz. (Still trying to figure out this DFI board)

the neo2's for sure reporting high. i dunno by how much tho, havent attached a probe to be able to get a gauge yet
