new version of cpu z

http://valid.x86-secret.com/show_oc?id=48152 which shows up socket 939 and core name properly...

CPU-Z 1.31 - with my old Clawhammer s754, it shows 1.475v. 1.30 showed 1.550v. The actual is 1.65v.

If it's fixed, it's only for new stuff.

Found out that TRRD played major role in my opterons stability. I'm thinking that 2950mhz 1.67 BIOS set is possible. Memory is even more bounded to stability than any other cpu i had :p: Took me 2 hours to realise it was TRRD after I loosened timings to a level that would make TCCD cry. Also the Antec 430 TP I was using has a range of 3-3.2Vdimm while priming, so definitely nothing good. The OCZ is coming back to life it seems.

priming as we speak, this was a untweaked SP32M run with a low TRRD value :p:

http://xtremesystems.org/forums/atta...id=39530&stc=1

SP1M run, have not had time to run any further. 3100mhz at 1.67 bios set resultet in BSOD under SP1M. unoptimized run, however first ever with an AMD CPU over 3ghz and under 30s run.

CABNE 0540 APMW not looking as bad as on previous attempts - I know it has been said many times, however memory timings are 50% of the success.

More coming later, now its time to play with memory.

:D

Eva - to get an effective burn in, you want higher volts but NOT higher temps! So it's good that your temps are under control - maintaining high volts + maintaining low temps = successful burn in. High temps increases resistance in circuitry!

so what do you find as ideal settings for CPU burnin

guess why cpuburn in is so nice

Room temp = 30.5C to 32.5C :rolleyes:

strange cpu burn in same temps as toast but room temp is a tad higher heh

So which is the core of the 146 CABYE 0540? Venus or San Diego?

Screen from the latest CPUZ shows Venus, latest CBID which is a little older than CPUZ shows San Diego.

Since when has it been called Venus core... anything new about this core? (Other than it overclocks higher than a stoner in a cannabis plantation).

Also are there any guys here with CABYE FPAW in the low batch numbers (0200 or thereabouts). I don't think a lot of these can hit 3Ghz as easily as the higher numbered FPAWs and FPMW/FPBW.

Cheers,

Suman

OCCT not good enough for you? Here's a little large prime:

Humm, :confused: just noticed that I must have used CG, as prime uses the bios and cpuz uses the real MHz. Oh well, prime was still running so cpuz wasn't added latter. Messed around so much I forgot what I did. :)

You are talking about overclockers.de online shop..
Be carefull with them... I told them to keep me 5 cpus, I ordered the cpus and they finally told me the cpu went out of stock, It was totally wrong since they transfered the 5 cpus to pretested category and they refused to sell me the cpus... why? To make more money on each cpu...
Very bad german shop.... I repeat : overclockers.de

heres my 146 CABYE 0540FPBW (currently priming)
1.45V .. idle 36c full load 42c on a artic freezer 64 until i get wc this week and hopefully push it further :banana:

just got rid of my 144's, cab2e 0540fpmw highest was 9x305 @ 1.54V, wouldnt clock any higher even with 1.7V & cabge 0536vpaw did 9x308 @ 1.65V

yeah confusing older CBI showed opterons as Venus, latest CBI 77 build shows it as San Diego which is complete opposite of CPUZ

thanks, will be back with more when i get wc set up this week :D

as for opertons, i thought they were based on san diego

dnottis sent it to me. I'll have to ask him where he got it from. I don't see it on the official website.

[Edit] I did find it on their forum, it's beta: CPUZ 1.31.0

On another note... I think I found stability finally.

http://www.madmikess.com/stuff/opter...-primepass.jpg

I think that people should consider what they are seeing as far as temps go. I think the sensor on the die is off. With 1.62v I was hitting mid 60's temps and my waterblock wasn't even getting warm. Any air cooled cooler that I have ever used would have been blazing at that temp. I set a -10C offset in MBM as it closer reflects the temps I was getting with my 3700 San Diego chip with the same voltage.

i've always thought it was venus. people have tried to convince me otherwise :(

also, finally took the time to remount my waterblobk on my unlidded opteron. before, load temps at 1.4v were around 40c. now at 1.54v, load is 42c with ~2-3c warmer water. :toast:
overclocking should definitly benefit from this
