EDIT: I'll play along then :up:
Whats up with the 3500+ and 3800+ Venices ??? Is AMD speed binning in reverse or are the 3200s clocking higher ??? :confused:
Perkam
Well the other thread is supposed to be for screenshots only I think.
Awsome idea dividing these threads!
The Official Winchester Thread is absolutely useless if you just want a quick overview of the results achieved by our fellow overclockers...
Probs to you conrad, putting down a big job keeping the other threads clean... :toast:
So I see a lot of the 3000 venices doing quite well, and theres been some speculation as to the fact that the current batch may be good and a couple months later a batch of lemons which someone in the venice thread was saying was what happened with the winnies.........it's all speculation, but I really see that as a possibility, what do you guys think? It really wouldn't surprise me one bit, but then again getting a good OC'ing CPU is always luck of the draw
I pre-order'd a 3000+ today and I hope it will be a good one, just need a cpu to replace my nice 0433SPMW Winchester which died on me. I got a 0508DPGW but I sold it 30 mins after I got it hehe and ten minutes after that I ordered the Venice ;)
Nicke- How did your Winny die on you out of curiosity?
A few of the guys at Anandtech are getting so-so results. Seems like most of the 3800+'s are doing as hoped but the 3500+'s are a different story.
Well, I gave it like 1,7v in the bios and rebooted and it didn't post anymore, thought the motherboard was the faliure so I tried to RMA it but it was working. So I recieved a new CPU from RMA.
You know I've noticed that AMD is a headache when it comes to getting a good chip for overclocking and it's always USUALLY the first batches and then it turns to crap. With Intel I'd say it's the opposite for some reason. With each new batches the OC potential gets bettar and better.
Course I'm not saying that Intel's chip have a better chance of a great OC, BUT it just seems like people have to dodge less turds with Intel. I put up offerings every night to the OC gods before I go to sleep so that my 3500+ gets to 2.8 on my XP-90C... :worship:
I think winchesters were a fluke. I bet Venice will stay about the same average (2.6-2.9ghz on air) until the next core revision comes out.
im going to wait until somebody runs venice under DYCE and see if it OC well im going to buy it
Just to be safe (as some of these new Venices seem to be doing worse than the first Venices) I pre-ordered a 3200+ from NCIX.com tonight. I'm hoping for 2.7GHz on air and 3GHz+ if I ever get a water chiller going. :cool:

Hey guys , anybody able to publish their results benched on Venice in 3dmark03 and 05 ? I am able to post my results but anable to check the little box "publish" , u know what i am talking about . :( No problems with 3dmark2001 , only 03 and 05 ...
Seems like you can hit 2.7ghz for average on 3000+ and 3200+ on air so I'm hoping for for at least 2.6ghz stable on air. Just need a good replacement to my winchester.
I'm hoping they don't suddenly have bad batches, I got money for one now, I want a 3200+ retail though and monarch won't be shipping those out until the 20th. I will be watercooling mine and I'm hoping for 2.8GHz which I think is a realistic hope since I see a lot of people hitting 2.8GHz on air.
I had to RMA my first NF7-S v2 board because I fried it, and I think the one that got returned isn't as good =/ The RAM can run 266MHz I know for a fact, but this board dun like anything above 200MHz for the most part. Thought I had it figured out and was running 235MHz with an AGP Aperture of 128mb which seemed to stop crashes in games for a while, but I really can't wait to go venice and have 2.8GHz+ with RAM running atleast 250MHz if not higher. Can't beat their awesome memory controllers with great bandwidth
My OEM 3000+ LBBLE 0516 CPBW from Monarch so far is nothing to impressive.
In fact my 3500+ Newcastle is better out of the box. But Im still working at it, just put the Venice in last night. Newcastle was not Prime stable at 2.7, but was some what stable. Venice just barely loads Windows at 2.7 w/1.75vcore on good air.
I posted here a couple of weks ago with my Venice. It overclocked to 2.8GHz on air. Well I decided to try some new RAM. Some BH-5. It worked like a charm @ 3.65v. So I decided to try some burnin on these stick. I left them running Memtest86 Test 5 overnight @ 3.65v. Bad Idea :) Now my CPU can still do 2.8GHz with one stick in it. But as soon as I try to run Dual Channel it tops out at about 2.2GHz. It's not the memory, because I've tried with new RAM. It could be the Mainboard, but I doubt it. It seems that one of the channels on the memcontroller on the CPU it broken. Hopefully my San Diego will be here shortly to find out if it's really the CPU, or if it's the mainboard.
Since this is the forum of a lot of WR, hopefully I'm the first one to post a thread about a "Venice Homocide". :banana:
Edit:
I finally found out the problem. It seems I have killed my first RAM slot. If I put RAM in that one, it goes into BSOD over 220FSB. I'm currently using the two yellow slots instead of the orange ones that I used before, and I'm now back @ 2.8GHz with BH-5 @ 510MHz CL.1.5 -2 -2 -6. I didn't even know it was possible to kill one of the RAM slots. I'm using a DFI LanParty Ultra. Oh well as long as I'm only using two slots, having one out of four not working is not a problem :)

I have a hard time to convince myself that the cpu or motherboard got fried somehow, the problem went away with different pair of TCCD so it has to be the memory got cooked, can't explain why they still works one stick at a time either!!
what is the highest voltage someone is running on air with a Venice? I'm at 1.6v stable right now but don't want to go much higher until I know these chips can take it.
I'm building a new rig with the venice core. And I want to hit somwhere between 2.4 -2.5. Here are the specs. What do you think.
3200+ Venice
THERMALRIGHT XP-120
DFI Nforce 4 ultra
OCZ VX ddr500 1GB
OCZ POWER STREAM 520W
SEGATE BERRACUDA HDD
More benchmarks....2.862 Ghz rock stable on air is not too bad, still debating if I should return this Venice to Monarch after I received the 3700 San Diego :D :D

raising them didn't help any at all, it didn't hurt either but if you feel more comfortable to have extra juice going through them you can bump up one notch on each parameter, 1.30v for LDT and 1.60v for NB. ;)Quote:

Can bench with 2786 or something like that. Lowest 1mb pi is at that and was 31.458. That may be 2800. Durnign benching temp goes to about 48c. Folding right now its at 50c, i think the voltage is till at what I had it set to bench so its to high. I fold at 2700.
Fans, 1 120, 1 80 and the vent on the side that lets my heatsink, the thermaltake one, draw in room temp air. CAse sits at 29-30 c. These are acording to uclock on my an8.

from monarch on monday. swapped out my 3200 winny and tossed it in at default just to see if it worked then rebooted to 9x300 @1.6v, ok, but a little shaky so bumped it up to 1.66 and then ok. so wtf, lets go for 9x320, nfg, reboots at desktop. bump it up to 1.73, same again. take my ram out of the equation using dividers, try again still nfg. anyway, chip maxes out at around 305x9 stable, 1.66v (check out cpu temp in screenshot).
i am reading the venice oc thread and seeing guys with 3000+ getting better results than me with much lower vcore. thats the way it goes. but, at post #32, i see a guy with same chip as me, serial number less than 100 from mine,
getting much better results. kind of a big difference with same batch.
jumped on the 3200 nc s754, got 2700mhz. jumped on the 3200 winny, got 2700mhz. jumped on the 3200 venice, got 2700mhz. maybe a pattern here?
2700 is not bad, but after 2 months of hearing "dropped it in and 3gig!" i feel a little foolish. my bench results are about the same as the winny. thats ok. not supposed to be any significant performance increase. but what there was supposed to be was "much higher potential frequency". have a 3700 sandy in the mail. will demote this to my kids box. maybe.

ps as you can see i am noob at screenshots, etc. any help appreciated.
Same chip as you in SLI-DR using 4/14-3 BIOS and ocz rev2 TCCD. Won't go prime stable above 10x255 at 1.66v, haven't tested lower multis yet. Right now it is prime stable at 1.56v 10x250. Surpirsed it isn't scaling better with voltage.Quote:

That's me with the 3200 Venice that has the exact same stepping as yours, even my heatsink, mobo, ram, and hard drives are also identical...except the video card, I'm using the 6600GT instead. What PSU are you running them off of? and Which BIOS are you using?? Maybe it's the PSU that has been holding you back? though don't be surprise that these chips OC differently, couple months ago I bought 3 Winchesters from local store, all three of them have the exact same steppings even the last 4 serial numbers were very close, but none of them OC'ed the same, 1st one can only managed 2.4Ghz, 2nd one 2.7Ghz, and 3rd one only 2.55Ghz. My 3700 San Diego will be here tomorrow so I'll see how well it OC against this Venice :D
howdy.
i am using the antec 550 trucontrol, new version (30 amp 12v rail) using a 20/24 converter. also using 414-1 bios. swapped from 310-p bios with no discernable change. i had some slight suspicions about the psu, but it has adjustable rails - i set the 12v to 12.4v and the 5v to 5.3 and tried again, no difference. i realize that voltage readings taken from software do not show the current running throught the components, but only other psu i have around here is an enermax 465watt. i do have an evga 6600gt laying around here somewhere, i will dig it up and check it out. what dimm slots are you using? do you have the 5v dram enabled? what bios are you using?
very truly yours,
politenessman
ps my 3200 winny runs at slightly higher speed (2770 +), using lower vcore (1.55) and scores higher on sandra and evergreen mem tests at same htt. venice is lower power, better mem controller, and higher potential freq (stretch silicon, etc)
i must be doing something wrong here. wish i had another power supply.
this may be total noobishness, but has anyone heard of pci cards being a limiting factor in overclocking on a nf4?
very truly yours,
politenessman (grasping at straws)
It should not be - you can lock PCI bus to 33 MHz. To give you another data point I have a Venice chip same model & stepping as yours. I am using an Epox 9NDA3+ mobo and TCCD ram. I get essentially the same results with this chip versus my Winny - 2.5 GHZ stock, 2.6 with a little voltage, and 2.7 with a lot of voltage. The amazing part so far is how cool this chip runs - I let Stress Prime run for 2 hours at 2.5 GHZ/1.4 volts and the temp leveled off at 41-42 C ! This is 7-8 C cooler than my winny. I have an XP-120 with a 76 CFM fan. I will keep this chip in my main PC since it runs so much cooler. Like you I didn't get any more speed for my 200 bucks.Quote:

very truly yours,

ps really loved my 9nda3+. the 2.8v vdimm didnt matter (tccd). but after a month or so it would not warm restart so i rma'd to newegg (had bought the extended warranty, a must when buying epox). they sent me a refund claiming board had been discontinued. i dont know if this is true.
psps i checked bios. actually, you cannot lock the pci bus to 33mhz. it is just assumed, i guess.
Sorry, I should have explained - if your PCI-Express is set to 100 then your PCI which is derived from that is 33 MHz. That's weird about the Epox board - NewEgg has them available now!Quote:

I don't think the video card has anything to do with it, as for ram I use only the orange slots, you can run only 1 stick on slot 3 (the orange one further away from cpu), try 414-3 BIOS instead, then try again, before you go buy another PSU, what's your memory timing look like? get a A64 tweaker and post some screen shots of your timing and I'll see if I can help...

now i have been reading stuff on several forums re 20/24 pin psu. most agree that the spec says the extra 4 pins are strictly for powering pcie slot. other people swear to much higher cpu and gpu overclocks with 24 pin. now i am not fully convinced i need a 24 pin yet, but i do think the x850xt might sucking up some power i need for cpu. i have also seen a thread that explains why if you dont have pcie vid card plug from your psu, you need an adaptor to use 2 molex connectors to power the card (1 molex=72 watts, pcie vid card draws 100+, blablabla). what i get out this info is that i should see a difference when i get home and swap out the xt for the 6600 gt. any help you can give me tweaking the ram timings greatly appreciated. thanx

unplugged any unnecessary devices like USB printers, DVD Burner, Soundcard and all that craps, flash your bios to 414-3 if you haven't done so.Quote:

Your vmem is too low to run 300+ 1T, prime95 and superpi 32M will crapped out instantly if your memory doesn't has enough juice so go in the Bios set it to 2.90/enable and leave it alone for now.
Now, keep the HT ratio at 2.0 and don't change this, try 10 x280, and vcore 1.55v x110%, leave the vcore alone for now and don't touch it, go run the superpi 32m and if it passed, congrats...go back to the BIOS and bump straight up to 10 x285 and leave the rest of the settings alone. If you passed SuperPI 32M again, then try 9 x317, if superpi 32M failed, bump up vmem to 3.0/disable, but if you get BSOD, then the vcore need to be 1.55 x113%, try again. Once you get everything stable and if you want more memory bandwidth...let me know and I'll help you tighten up the rest of the setting, but for now stability is your main concern.
thanx man. i will do this thing now.

ok. these settings got me up to10x278 stable, 2.5/3/3/7 but only @ 1.71 vcore. anything less gives me constant reboots. i think thats all this chip has in it, although there are at least 3 guys here and at dfi street with same chip, from same place, very close serial numbers doing close to 2900 @ 1.55 vcore. power supply maybe? using truecontrol 550 (30amp 12v rail) with 20 to 24 converter. i cant think of anything else. temps are still great - 27c @ 1.71v idle, ambient around 22c. thanks for your help.

hi guyz,
do any of you guyz kno where i could pick up one of these 3200+ or 3500+ venice cores from singapore? i tried looking for some but havent had any luck!
thanx alot for you help guyz..
Believe me, mine is not the only one. Most of LBBLE 0515GPBW bought locally here can do that - this is really proven since we have a bunch of guys here who managed same or better results. Here is an example - CPU is watercooled.Quote:

Got to the F8 part of the install, and my hand was shaking as I hit the F8 key, so I slowly nudged the F8 key and to my surprise, evertyhing from there on out went fine. So this is the first post I make while the words I am typing are being processed by an AMD processor since my first computer back in 1998.
Feels kinda weird... I think I'm sorta seasick :sick: Having Intel systems for 7 years and switching to AMD now does weird things to my mind... :stick:

My 3500+ seems to be a 1.35v version.

alot of people cant do 2.7 so id have to disagree there. your chances with a 3200+ is better however.
"Venice just barely loads Windows at 2.7 w/1.75vcore on good air."
good god back the volts down! How high can you get at like 1.55v?
"these Venice can take up to about 1.75v on air safely"
they wont last long and volts often doesnt help after a point. I am getting like 48c at 1.52v
I already posted a picture above, 2.7GHz prime stable on water. Too bad my LEs doesn't go much higher. I am sure it can do more.Quote:

#42, you say your ram is limiting you, just take it out the equation and run a divider. Not saying you should do this 24/7(still dont see why not) but it would help to isolate your ram.
Meatfrog, air cooled at over 1.7v :shock: Do you run that 24/7? Also curious about your temps at load. I have the xp-90 too, and if I run at 1.45 + 113% (shows about 1.62 in bios) my load temps go to 48-49. I will have my venice tomorrow to start testing. Can they take more voltage than the winnies?
Rubescen -- I think your results are from a good chip!
any good 3000+ oem monarch oc's?
Yes the venice chips run much cooler than the winnies. At this voltage I don't see much over 50-51 during superpi 32MB. This is with my case door on. I think these chips lose stability around 56 but I could be wrong.Quote:

I could do 2.720GHZ @ 1.58v Super PI 32M fine, but prime would die within a few minutes.
Has anyone played with venice under DIce yet? :D
I'm hoping to next weekend. We'll see, I gotta get my DIce tube finished up.
how did u swap it and what stepping and etc was it. :(Quote:

Not really.
Good luck! If I can get the money for a DT200 thermometer and a 24 pin PSU I'll be picking up a 3000+ venice and DFI Ultra-D with an x600pro to hold me over until next gen :D I hope to see 3.3ghz.Quote:

The EPEW sucks, mine wouldnt prime past 2.6 ish.
NCIX 3000+ Venices SUCK A$$. Best ones do 2.7 GHz @ 1.7V. 2/3 chips. 1 chip doesn't do 2.7 at whatever volts. POS's.
Hmm venice looks real good based on these posts :rolleyes:

Hi all , i am the new member ,i have serveal OC problem want to ask in here
MY CONFIG IS
A64 3200+ (E3 stepping)
lanparty nf4 ultra d
kingston hynix DT-D43 chip 512*2 (ddr400)
which bios can suggest for my system ???? 331-3 ok ????
to achieve DDR500
I don't have ANYTHING ATM... I was kind of hoping these would do 3.3 under DIce though. 3122mhz claw to 3100mhz venice is kind of :stick:Quote:

AFAIK Ultra-D hates Hynix chips.
