Yeah, that's another possible point...Or maybe the CPU is concave or corvex and makes a very bad contact with the Heatsink.Quote:

Can a bad board make CPU run hotter?
It may, but very rare if ever. Only thing I could think of is that Intel may have made a bad IHS contact with the core inside, so heat transfer is very bad.Quote:

Yay! I managed to get myself a 3849B028! I placed an order online to make sure I at least get one, but when I got to Micro Center, the one they put aside was C0, so I went to the display glass and asked salesperson to check a few there, first one was another C0, then the second one he got, it's a D0 and B028, exactly what I had in mind to get. The sale is over on the 22nd. I might go back and get a few more of different batch, test them all and keep the one I like, sell the rest.
waiting for your results :up: seems b028 is good, but mine runs hot. I'll probably reseat my true to confirm.Quote:

I will take my time to make it works okay on stock speed first. Well, here comes the bad news. I think I managed to kill my GTX285 in the process. While turning it on for the first time, nothing on the screen. Cleared BIOS, tried again. This time, the screen became filled with artifact everywehere. Turn it off, and turn it on again. Nothing. No signal. Put a different video card in, it works. Put the GTX285 back in, nothing. Nothing. Once, twice, thrice...Put the other video card back in. Works. So, my GTX285 is cold dead. Will have to RMA it now back to EVGA.
Will update with OC later on.
Edit/Add:
An hour and a half later and I'm back. I think it's my board that is limiting my OCing. I get the same OCing result with the new CPU as the old one. So, I'm pretty sure it's just something I'm not doing correctly. Both of these CPUs have high potential of high OCing with the right mobo/memory and expertise like you guys have. Unfortunately, being a newbie, I simply just cannot get the desired OCing experience that you guys can.
Just curious what tempts you were getting stock and overclocked?Quote:

Is that any benefit to change these settings? If yes, to what number?
mhmm i can get a i920 3850A978 exaclty, it ocs well i see as well...
After lapping my True my temps have gone down a lot...it was bad, there was like a lump right in the middle of the HS, just the opposite to concave.Quote:

cky2k6, what board do you have again? Can you give me a complete voltage rundown of your BIOS? Perhaps I can duplicate your settings and see if mine would be stable at 4.4Ghz as well.
I have an asus r2e, its in my sig. 4.4 isn't stable, it wouldn't last a minute of linx, just enough for a few quick benches. Its set for 1.4 vcore, 1.4 uncore, 1.35 nb, 1.3 sb, and 1.7v ram.Quote:

it also completed an 06 run, this chip seems to have very good 3d stability.
It's strange that it's semi-stable but as soon as your run LinX, it crashes within seconds. By semi-stable, I mean I can run CPU-Z, SuperPI and Everest Benchmark. Under LinX, it's a totally different world.
Just got myself a Xeon 3902A250, so far it does 4.0ghz at stock voltage everything with HT on. Haven't tried it further as i'm currently in China, just did a quick run at the shop. Sounds pretty good, they also had a 3849B507 was debating which one but i've decided for the xeon don't know if i made the right choice :(

Looking good eva. I am thinking the 4/28 BIOS is the best so far. I have been having very good luck with the Xeon and the Kingstons. I can push past 2000MHz RAM, but 201*21 is a nice "sweet spot" for 24/7 running. It's just so damned stable and reliable!

I am currently working on my W3540 on the classified.So far things look good(fingers crossed) with my cl7 doms on it. It seems to work with exactly the same settings on the classified as my 920,except for the vdimm now @ 1.65.This was all on air as I am planning to water some time next month.
BTW, who says 4GHZ uncore is tough on air:p:
out of this 2 D0s, which one should I keep?
3849A832
3844A934
Haven't started my i7 build yet, but I am thinking of pairing this with
mobo: undecided, but probably the UD4P or a bloodrage (dang pretty)
cooling: air, not sure on this one yet, but I can get a hand on the Xigmatek DK for reasonable price (my budget here is $50 max)
RAM: got a deal on the corsair xms3 (8-8-8-24) ==> good??
~~ i think those 3 parts are the ones important for OC capability, I can list out the rest if necessary
target: OC of ~3.9-4.2
3849A832 seems to be almost on par with the 3845B027 as far I have seen. For example this thread @ the evga forums.Quote:

Thanks
If you can only afford one, take the B028, it runs at the same frequency with less voltage. If you can afford two, get both. Both OCs the same, but the B028 just does it with a little voltage than the others, that's all. YMMV, so don't bite me if yours happens to be a little than mine. I'm quite happy with either actually.Quote:

Just found a 3849A832; would this be slightly better than the B028 or B203? Someone above said that the A832 would be equivilent to the B027 which is a great chip to have from what Ive read.
Or better yet; which batch would be of best interest? Thanks
EDIT:Would a xeon w3520 be a better option? not even sure if they are supported my my mobos yet; BloodRage, Biostar Tpower, Gigabyte UD4P
Preference in order: Xeon, A832, B028 then B203.Quote:

Thanks guys; Just have to think if the Xeon is worth the additional cost. I can get the A832 for approx. $265 or the Xeon for $295. I have heard that the xeons may create issues on some mobos. also I do not know if I metioned it already, but I stopped by MC today when I was in Denver (normally 65-70 mi trip from where I live, but was visiting family) and they had NO D0's at all.
I have found a couple members that are selling D0's and on ebay. Found the xenon on ebay too from platinumicro, but not sure of the batch.
I have seen killer results with the xeon, especially with dice or ln2, but I will only be on TRUE or eventually H2o. Damn decisions, or can wait for MC to get D0's in and get one for $215-250 depending on wether or not they have another $200 deal, lol
Does anyone have any experience with batch 3849A772?? only seen this result so far but it looks promising: http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=224581
Wow...interest dies down a lot since last week or so.
I wouldn't mind getting my hands on either a Xeon or that A832 at all. Both should be equal in OCing and the D0 might even pull ahead a little from the many benches users are EVGA's forum reported.Quote:

Okay, so lately has anybody been able to get any earlier batches (3845/3846) from Micro Center? Trend tends to indicate that earlier batches OC better than latter batches. Haven't checked any 920 lately at MC, so I'm not sure what kind of batches they have now comparing to a week ago or earlier.
Does my Asus P6T Deluxe needs any bios update or will it just work out of the box these new D0's?
what are your other voltages,btw your temps wasnt -7C thats just the lowest e-leet goes :up:Quote:

Hi peeps another batch check. Iv been offered a 3850A795 920 D0 retail at a pretty good price 2nd hand. The owner has got it up to 4.3Ghz with 1.36v on a Biostar Tpower and air cooling. I can get a new one OEM for alittle more but not sure on batch. As im going watercooling, can i expect that a newer D0 should clock further or should i just grab this one now? I have a UD5.
Cheers Brad.
It should work right out of the box.Quote:

Changed BIOS Settings :
bclk = 200
most of the cpu settings off including turbo (ht still on)
vcore = 1.4 V
qpi/vtt = 1.4 (found some guide that suggested 1.5 but lowered it to 1.4 and it's doing fine, could probably go bit lower still?)
ram multi = 8x (results in 1600 MHz) using 1600 OCZ Reaper
uncore multi = 17x
rest of the voltages are set to auto
Any ideas here?

3849A925
3849B018

Any of these rings any bells of OCing?
There were also some C0/C1 SLBCHs, but wasn't interested in them...
is the A and B differs anything?
I heard B's are better with C0/C1, is it same with D0's?
I've been pretty happy with my C stepping running @ 3.8Ghz stable on air. What kind of increase can I get with these D0 stepping chips? Am I better off just waiting for some higher clocked chips to come out?
A D0 will give you at least 4Ghz (my does 21x205 on a crappy mobo). But if you are happy with your C1, there is no reason to get a D0. People who get the D0 are the the absolute maniacst of the PC users. They want the absolute best every single time. :ROTF:Quote:

Sometimes you would get a B that would OC like crap. And the same for A batch. There is no garantee unless you can hand pick one that has already provened by someone else. And even that is not a garantee because every chip is different, even if it's the same batch # as what the other users have.Quote:
