I'm ready to slap my 3200+ 0517BPEW 0057 :slapass:

I got my container today so I will try DI soon hopefully.
I'd do it. Most week 17s should beat most week 16s. And your current chip is a bit of a clunker by most standards. Go for it! :DQuote:

3800+ ABBLE 0504DPAW 2900Mhz Vapochill 1M 1.65 (1.60v acc CPU-Z).
It does 2850Mhz on Air 1M same voltage.
I was looking through the list and I didn't see any other ABBLE...? can post screeny, but I need to buy a wireless ethernet card first. or find my USB stick.
So either I'm missreading something, or that cooling is going to great waste...Quote:

You can add this also to the data base.. It ended up freezing halfway through 3dmark05 so this is not stable.. Im running at a solid 2700mhz right now with no problems. this is on air.

Tested 5.10-2 and 3.10p BIOS, no influence :(
Have someone an idea?
Might wanna at least try out the latest official BIOS.....already heard a couple people saying that 615 fixed up some boot issues they had been having at certain clocks or with certain ram...etc...
I'm testing 615 now, it started up...
Same s*it again, cant past 3.2GHz :shrug:
..and it's freeze on desktop, is this coldbug for real?
Quite possibly...makes me feel a little better, knowing that I'll never be running more then a single stager on this chip.Quote:

They only had one week 17 so I took a gamble, its an 0517 GPBW, results in a few hours.
Same here, local shop only had one 3000 Venice left, 0517, cept mine's a APJW....I'll have some early results asap...it'll be here in about 15 minutes. :)Quote:

Sitting in windows listening to tunes posting and checking email with no hiccups so far...300x9 running at 1.45v right now.
Even if this isn't super stable.....it's slick that I'm even in windows DOING this at this low a voltage....after I take a shower I'll drop the voltage and see how low it'll go for SuperPi 1M stable first ;)
EDIT: it's been running for 5 minutes, obviously NO burn-in yet, and at the very least, it's SuperPi 1M stable at 300x9 1.45v in windows so far...now we start dropping the votlage.
Got me a good one. :toast: :banana: :woot:
I can run 2.7GHz @ 1.32 volts in windows but it still needs 1.42 to be stable, and 2.8 isn't stable even at 1.52 volts :stick:Quote:

:hehe: i lived under the equator though :rolleyes:
Hmm, load temp below 50 is pretty nice at that voltage with cheap-o WC :)
I'm at 50C with 1.42 volts :/
Small update so far.....still no tweaking, just bumping voltage and htt slowly....memory timings all at auto, and done in my main partition (with a 200MB commit charge) so excuse the poor time...but here's where I am so far:
http://img217.echo.cx/img217/9738/apjw1m5te.jpg
Not bad eh? :p:
It'll be nice to see what this thing does on dice as soon as my buddy gets his containers...but I'm not done yet.
I'm working with ~24C room temps and a Zalman 7700ALCU.
But it goes better with VapoChill LS :confused:Quote:

Edit....back tonight with pics.....
Wow Cornelious, i'm glad that chip beats the crap out of your old chip, nice going :)
I can do 2.7 fully stable with stock volts but then again my chip has trouble with 2.77 so i shouldn't brag about that
2.85 is good for a 3000+! You could be able to get it 24/7 stable at a full 2.8 Ghz.
That's not even the half of it...I've gotten quite a bit more out of this thing since...just haven't taken any SuperPi pics for ya. I'm at 28s now, but I haven't messed with any Alpha timings, and I'm gonna setup my seperate bench partition pretty soon...
Before any burn-in it's already 1M stable at 2.96GHz on air /w my Zalman 7700ALCU...1.616v...how's that for an improvement? :D
Here's CPU-Z and A64Tweaker...I'm gonna see what I can do for a suicide shot and then setup my bench partition to see how close I can come to hittin 27s. :cool:
http://img123.echo.cx/img123/9337/apjwclock6nl.jpg
EDIT: This's the only other chip on the list so far hitting the same clock as me on air cooling:
--- 3000+ LBBLE 0517EPAW - 2961 MHZ 1.616V AIR - Vosh tweak.pl - 12 h prime stable , Freezer64 + AS5 , BEST CPU IVE SEEN ---
Looks like he's still ahead though, I'm not 12H Prime stable...but it's nice to know I'm "up there" with this chip...I'm confident that I'll be pretty damn close to doin' some 1M runs at 3GHz once this thing is broken in.
Here's the 1M for ya...still in my dirty OS and with "auto" Alpha timings...and voltage knocked down to 1.600v...I'm quite pleased with this thing.
:woot:
http://img181.echo.cx/img181/8966/apjw1m2ee.jpg
Gotta go push it a little farther just so I can get a 3GHz+ suicide shot. :cool:
Does someone still have the result of 0519 series???? :cool:
Cornelius...
which serie?
Well, no 3GHz suicide on air I guess.....ah well.....did grab a validation shot though...
@ 1.600v
LBBLE 0517APJW
I will buy a venice in a couple of days,
what should i buy
3000+ 0517Apaw(i found nothing on it)
or
3200+ 0516EPMW
future system: DFI NF3 Ultra-D
1gig Ocz pc3200 platinum rev 2 (tcc5 I think,is it good?)
ocz powerstream 520w :)

Well 3200 0517 GPBWs are certainly not wonder chips, neither are then even 'good' chips. Cant get 2800 stable with any voltage, and 2700 requires 1.536V for 32M stability:
http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...id=32658&stc=1
I'm going to test for a few more days, but this chip might be headed for ebay.
EDIT: Fantastic chip you've got there mate *scowels at pathetic GPBW*
Theo why are you using the 9x multiplier? You've tried the 10x right?
yeah well, my old 3000+ 0516EPKW needed 1.72v for 32M stability at 300x9. :rolleyes:Quote:
EDIT: Fantastic chip you've got there mate *scowels at pathetic GPBW*
Funny thing is that while my sticks stayed in the orange slots...I ended up interchanging their places...and now I have no more stability at all.....gonna have to go through all my BIOS testing again 'till I find which one is gonna get me farthest now. :mad:
Ah well....'till then...left the ram at 9/10 to see what I could do at low voltage:
http://img104.echo.cx/img104/7615/ap...lowvolt8nl.jpg
Not bad, as soon as I find out what BIOS I'm gonna need with my ram "re-arranged" I'm gonna start at 200x9 running at .992v, going up 5htt at a time, raising voltage as I need to...to make sure that I burn the chip in as I go, and so that I'm running at the lowest possible voltage at every htt increment.
Here's my new venice that i recieved on friday from ZZF. It's a PIB with the code of 0520 APMW. More than likely i'll run it with this setting which so far has been 100% reliable with anything i've tried to do with it thus far.
Absolute_0: Yes I tested with the 10 multi all the way, just changed over to the 9 once I'd realised that 2.7 was about it for this chip.
I've just run prime a couple of times and this chip is a lot worse than I thought. It failed within 7 seconds at the settings I posted the screen shot of.....feels like that winchester prime thing that was discovered a while back..... :mad:
Increased the vcore to 1.58 and dropped with htt to 270x10 to rule out memory, and it failed within a minute and a half...... :mad: :mad: :mad:
Will post once I finaly find a setting and voltage that can last longer than 5 friggin minutes of prime....
BIOS work is so fun...I'm gonna start on it tonight...gotta go back and find the one that's gonna work best for me again...cus I'm 1M stable at 300x9 1.36v, but if I use that voltage on 205x9 it fails 32M after 1 or 2 passes.....exactly what happened before I did any BIOS stuff before and tried nearly every revision to find the one that clocked me the farthest.
Seeing as I've already topped out at 2.96GHz on air @ 1.600v all I've got to do now is start from 205, working up 5 at a time, trying new BIOS' when I have to, to get to my max 32M clock, which will then become my 24/7 clock...and will hopefully help to get this thing burnt in so that I can squeeze an extra 1 or 2 htt out of it on the high end.
Sorry I just have to throw in an OT comment here: Isn't it funny how 2700Mhz is now considered a BAD cpu :p: Kinda ironic since AMD has yet even "officially" released a cpu faster than 2600Mhz ;)
Nah, I don't think 2700mhz is considered as a bad cpu just a regular cpu. The ones that goes to 2,8ghz is more luck cpus ;)
2700 aint bad at all... 0516 guys would just love to hit that...

Very nice bro, I'm hoping that after some more proper burn-in I'll be closer to that 1.55v mark at 329x9...as I saw somewhere between a .025v and a .050v decrease at the same OC after burning in my 0516EPKW.
A candidate for the Xtreme Undervolting thread perhaps? :D
10h prime95
28.5C ambient temp... 33C avg load... :D
Yep, my 3200+ did Prime stable 2.9GHz with AIR, 3242MHz with VapoChill and under CO2 I found that stupid coldbugQuote:

Ordered the DFI NF3 Ultra-D and will see if it fixes my problems :D
While yours might still be sub-par....it's not THAT bad.....could be worse, but yeah...it would bug me being at those clocks when i see all of those 2800 and 2900 clocks at the same voltage Prime stable.Quote:

(2.7ghz rockstable on stock cooler, but can't do 1t or even 4 sticks of memory). Memory controller is real sucker. I am going to RMA mine tomorrow. I could lose some clock but can't deal with 1gb considering new games coming up.
Yeah, i have experienced similar things. First off, 2.7 Ghz easily primes with stock everything. However the memory controller does seem shot, above 275 HTT i simply can't get it stable even though the voltage is so low, raising it does not help.Quote:

4Rory has this CPU and has had a similar experience, concluded it was a bad memory controller. Seeing Stephen's 3.4 Ghz OC on the chip under extreme cooling however, i am led to believe that it's a good OCer with a hit or miss memory controller, some people can run 2.95 Ghz stable with air cooling and some of us have major memory controller problems.
I still want to see if a new mobo will help... but i'm still in the market for a chip that'll break 2.8 Ghz on air.
I was having problems running dual channel with my 0515 APAW so I thought the mem controller was to blame. I had a crappy OCing 0518 chip sitting on my desk so I popped it in and I was having the same problem. So thank goodness it wasn't the mem controller on this sweet chip. :D Seems to either be my board or RAM, or maybe even my PSU. Who knows... :slap:
Slightly off topic, but I just thought of something funny.
This new chip is a fricken nice overclocker...but the mem controller won't do 1:1 at more then 309x9...whereas my $hitty overclocking 0516EPKW did 1:1 up to like 323 or so.
Ah well, can't have the best of both worlds I guess. :p:
Well I seriously doubt 2 totally diff mobo (one DFI the other ABIT will have simlar problems when both board do run 2 pairs of UTT 1T with winchester fine... or all 4 sticks of it in 2T. It's gotta be the Venice. This CPU is sweet in that it can do 2.8ghz 2T blah blah for 3200+ chip air everything stable... (highend air though... the big typhoon). But... I can't use frigging 2GB as I want... oh well. I HONESTLY think this CPU has issues with memory controller more so than anything else... EXACT same problem on DFI NF4 and ABIT AN8SLI... (well few more problems in DFI but thats something else)
Yeah, I'm assuming it's the Venice.
Hiyas,
Long time reader, first time poster
Well, its 9:00am and I have an exam that I am completely not ready for (because I've been building computers all week) at 1:00pm, so I'll make this quick.
First, hasn't anyone noticed how all the CBBLE stepping chips have completely pwned in regards to OC'ing and those that aren't CBBLE all have **A* stepping? I'm having a really hard time trying to work out what the key factor is in regards to how high a CPU will clock. I have the opportunity to buy any one of the following stepping:
(unfortunately(?) all are LBBLE chips)
0518CPEW
0518CPAW
0518EPCW
0519BPCW
Now you can see why I'm trying real hard to narrow down what the key factor is in regards to OC'ing. There's only 1 of those CPAW cpu's left. Because it's a **A* cpu, does that mean it will clock higher? Or does it all come down to the week it was made? (coincidentally, all 3000+ week 17, 12, and 4 cpu's are **A*). So which one is it? Should I buy that CPAW? I really need at least 2.85ghz from my cpu (when I decide on one) so I can max out my ram and have it running 1:1 at ~318HTT.
On another observation, it seems Australia (where I live) is getting their CPU's from the German Fab. plant. Whenever I google these stepping codes all I get is a slew of german forums with, what seems to be, pretty poor OC'ing results. You can imagine how much fun it is wading through all the "hoger klokken's" and "spreken net's" all the while desperately trying to find some OC'ing figures.
So anyways, in closing, whats the deal?
My Rig:
DFI LANPARTY NF4 ULTRA-D
1GB OCZ PLAT. REV. 2
74GB RAPTOR
DUAL 21" MONITOR
POWERCOLOR X800XL
NO CPU! (YET)
renzokuken7 - Lv 216 Clan Agent, Anarchy Online
Tough to say...there are so many 0517's turning out to be really nice...but if you're choosing between those 4 0518's then I'd say to try out the xxAx.
renzokuken, So when I did those stats earlier, that was pretty early in the game... now I get almost the same result with LBBLEs clocking slightly lower, statistically. BUT I only have 12 cbble samples, which isn't really a fair comparison. I have both a 3800 (CBBLE) and 3500 (LBBLE) and they oc the same, big difference I notice is that the 3800 runs slihgtly cooler, like 3C. So I think the LBBLE vs CBBLE doesn't matter as much as the next stepping code... and it seems the "XPAW"s are good clockers, so I would go with that CPAW, but also see if you can get the batch code, also seems to be a good indicator of silicon quality. Don't be surprised if you go through a few cpus thou ;)
nope i notice that PC does best PC= phase changeQuote:

Well, try to get a week 15 or 17 Venice and you should be alright. You can't go wrong with Venice :). As for going AMD, you made teh right choice :)
Well, in my excitement to get my Venice core plugged in and running I forgot to record the entire stepping code. But I do know that it was a week 20. Over the course of the last three days i've been able to hit 2.550 mhz at 1.42v. Everything is Prime95, SuperPI and hardcore gaming stable.
Sorry I was lame and forgot to record the entire stepping. Next time I pull of my heatsink i'll write it down :slapass:
And last screen shot showing CPUz
So 20s aren't looking so good.

waterchiled -6°C
Here is my
LBBLE 0517 APJW, batch #1127
Not quite as good at Cornelious's! I need way more Vcore. It seems very SP stable but as soon as i raise HTT a little i get a BSOD, and then with a tad more Vcore it is stable again. Maybe it's a RAM thing.
Before you tell me how bad teh score is, I KNOW. I'm running ram with a huge divider, 2T, and terrible timings... just wanted to make sure ram wasn't a limiting factor ;)
aircooled BTW

Still not bad Absolute_0, ridiculously newb question, but where exactly is the batch number located on these things?
Lower right of all the crap on the CPU. The 3 (4?) last digits.
Last 4 of serial ;)Quote:

It seems that i'm getting a lot of blue screens instead of seeing instability.
Example: I ran SP32M at 2.85 and it seemed really stable, moved up to 2.88 Ghz and boom BSOD instantly. Raised voltage up a tad and no more BSOD. My other venice wasn't like this; is it normal?
