Nice clocks... I got 27.4s on my diego at same speed but 273mhz 2*256 bh5. Interlacing+gig must make a big difference.
Not rma the 144, rma the mb.Quote:

I'm confused about the DFI/AMD stuff.
I thought AMD's idea here was to make AMD workstations cheaper by removing the need for Registered ECC memory. Therefore creating a workstation market/low end server market for these chips.
Do the 939s work in 940 boards? Where are the 939's suppose to OFFICIALLY go? Are there 939 server boards as opposed to desktop boards? I did not know this.
I was going to wait to try the 146 that came today( thanks Vandi) until my new board came Monday to fill in for this rma board. However, after looking at it for one and a half hours, I gave in. I won't post any ss as I only have single channel.
The long and short of it is it will do 300x10 but at 1.52v. I wouldn't trade my 144 for it(9x334@1.4). Even Team Japan showed less volts with the 144 vs the 146. If I didn't have the 144, I would think the 146 was great. On high air or water I think this stepping of the 144 will most likely do as well as the 146. Who knows what the next stepping will bring.

Thanks. Now scrambling to interpret your 1m and Sandra numbers at that clock. :D 1:1 is so damn sexy!Quote:

i have reason to believe that the memory controller on these opterons are pretty good. i have a stick of ballistix that used to top out at like 250mhz with 2.5-2-2. now with a board that my bh-5 is clocking worse on, the ballistix gained 7mhz :stick:
Don't they have a Fry's where you live? Just grab an Ultra-D and hang on to your receipt.Quote:

Barely scratched the surface of what the 939 Opterons will do but I think this thread need a FAQ and an OC summary in post one if you want to go for stickification. :stick:
agree :)Quote:

We need an XS member with a a lot of time, too much energy and an anal retentive personality to police the new thread. So we only have half the XS membership who really qualify as candidates for owner/operator of the proposed thread. :DQuote:

i fail on the anal rententive personality bit :( :p:
My spastic colon disqualifies me as well.Quote:

ahh screw it, pop off the vent, slide that mobo in :D
what's the best ram to use for these optys?
My contribution
144 CABNE 0530APMW on MSI Neo4 Plat SLI
Avg cooling, slow mem speed and timings. Not bad for first hour out the box.

have you tested that board for max HTT.......just in case it was holding you back for higher OC
try 32M run as well there....looking very good once again congrats :toast:
