hot $hit man,,, nice stuff,,, I need 1.58v to hit 2.65ghz with my opt170 and I cant even get core 0 to stay stable at 2.7 with 1.63volts,,,Quote:

that's good news...I sent out a few of those (and the later revision CCB1E 0550VPMW) this past week. things are looking good.
dave
its as if every chip is better than my 0530 tpmw... nice chip btw
Nice! You may even be able to squeeze a little more out of it at stock vcore, my 0530 will prime for days at 2750 with voltage set to Auto.

hey magic what kind of cooling are you running? you try taking that chip up past 2.7 with some more volts yet?
i swear to god its like i have the only 0530 dud chip.. i mean its not a dud but its not this! i cant hit 2750 @ 1.534v!Quote:

Awesome
5 and a half hour and still going :cool:
nice nice
ps i envy your chip :p

mag|c , very nice chip !
Very nice chip you have there. More voltage please. :D
glad im not the only one :p (no offense)Quote:

where do you buy ? i want one !!
i send you the monney and you send me one ? pleaaaaaaaaaase !
hey maglc ,,,, okay 5 hours is plenty ,,, see how much higher you can get that chip to go,,, seems like a nice Overclocker,,,
And where did you buy it from?
Very nice :toast:
What cooling?
DltdApS: Its bought in denmark, I can buy one and sent it to you?
demonbane23: A shop in denmark. Dont know how much higher it can go, Im having exam tomorrow and the chip arrived this morning at 9.30, just threw it in and it booted with my 3700+ settings 295x10 no problem, but with 1,52v so i changed settings for the current.
K.I.T.T.: Im using a Zalman CNPS 9500!

did you try to prime at this speed,,, im sure the zalman can handle 1.52 volts....
p.s. good luck on your exam
thanks alot mate...Quote:

anyone unhappy with their 0530TPMW, id be willing to swap for my 0543TPMW that has gone up to 2900 for benching...
There are a couple for sale on the hardforums:Quote:

to the OP: Nice 170 you have there :D
Mag|c - where'd you order yours from and when?
Terrordemon - if you are concerned that your RAM is stalwarting your OC attempts, loosent the timings and put a sizable divider on it.
he already said its from denmark. I live in germany and i saw this here:Quote:

may i buy one...hmmm or 2:rolleyes: .... i'am not sure:confused:
but they are so damn overpriced in germany:nono: :slapass: :mad:
this one is 420€ thats 100€ more as it is @ newegg
damn i dunno what to do :stick:
i just saw the difference between CABWE and his CBBWE
mybe its even so good or better hehe :D
i have a feeling its a shaky set of ballistix that is messing with my OC and stability not my CPU,,, not sure if loosening them would help though,,, guess its worth a try,,,Quote:

Show us some more results with higher volts! Good luck!
Nice CPU, but how Tcase is in it?
Excellant CPU there...
I just received my OPTY170 on Wednesday it's currently sat at 260*10 on 1.39 volts.

But the pic says "nothing"?
looks good! new steppings are looking up, as the past few haven't been so good.
i've got a few more procs on the way (165s, 170s, and 175s) so i'll let you know what the steppings are.
dave
fz1: i have a divider on it but i havent loosened the timings, so its running at 135mhz @ 2-3-2-5
nice so far Maglc I see you have it running at 2.75ghz with only 1.34 vcore fromy our SN,,, its looking good so far
Rigth now it's dual priming small fft's at 2,8ghz with 1,375v windows read (1,375 x 104%) core 1 didn't like 2,8ghz with either stock voltage or 1,344v windows measuring (auto x 104%).
But core 0 didn't seem to have any problems.

I cant get stable at 2.7ghz with 1.63 vcore,,, so you are miles ahead at the moment,,, seems like you struck some good luck with that chip,,,
the 0530 TPMW's are very good at stock volts like most DC Opties. It's above that it gets tricky. I can get to 2.75ghz on stock vcore too, but anymore than that requires lots of extra volts. Same thing goes for a lot of other steppings that I've seen.
It's now running and still going at 50min of dual prime95 Large FFT's both at HIGH priority at 280x10 auto x 110% 1:1 3-3-3-8.
But I changed drive and data strength from 6 and 7 / 2 and 3, to 4/1 with this setting my san diego didn't load windows at all.
So maybe it didn't needed + 110% but I'll test that later.
Last what does no affinity in SP2004 mean, and should it be checked or unchecked?
Quote:

that way you know exactly which core fails if any,,,,
no affinity means it uses both cores equally while its checked,,,,
drive strength at 7 worked for me also,,, more stable,,,
Think you can reach 2.9 3.0,,?? this chip sounds nice
right now i doubt it, core 1 failed at 55min :stick: it seems random witch core will fail, core 0 seems to like "higher" voltage - 1,42v and didn't fail there.. core 1 runs better at low voltage.
and its getting rather hot 1,36v = 50 degrees load temp
This is a little better :rolleyes:
I'm trying out 2,85Ghz now same vcore as this picture.
Edit: bah anything involving memory cause failure.

This chip doesn't behave like yours at all.
It tops out at 312*9=2800MHz (two instances of prime )but it
needs 1.62V to do it. Also that is with the IHS removed and on watercooling.
The temps is very low though, about 40 at full load and around 25
at idle. At stock volts it will only overclock to about 2400 MHz,
but it scales fairly nice with voltage.
It was quite tricky to get it to 2.8GHz since it didn't like
the same memorytimings as my Opty 146 CABYE 0540 FPBW(3100MHz),
though when I finally got it stable I must state that I am very pleased
with it. One can run one instance of Prime 95 and run a 3D-benchmark
or game and there is like no difference!
jackea: u are right is CCBWE not CBBWE sorry about that, i just checked.
im also trying to figure out my ballistix on this chip, is not anything like my sandiego.
I have also experienced that it seems a bit random when one push it
to high, one boot it will be stable at 2850 and go through dual instances
of prime95 Large FFT's the next boot it craps out after 1 minute.
I have no idea why that is, I havent experienced that on any CPU before.
I will probably back of a bit and run it a bit lower for my 24/7 use.
It feels pretty good to be able to run 200MHz above FX-60 speeds,
at less than a 1/3 of the price!!!
Do you think it is safe to run it at 1.62V, the max load temp never
goes above 40 degrees, so i think it shoud be OK?
Also I can say that I don't trust the temp readings, when i removed the IHS
the temp didn't drop but I could overclock it 100MHz higher.
That couldn't be if the temp had not dropped right?
i would says 1,62v is fine with that temp, have u installed the amd driver thingy? maybe that'll help reading your temps

Hello, just wondering, CPUs with the same stepping and batch number should perform just about the same in terms of overclocking when compared with each other?
don't think you can have the same batch number :rolleyes:Quote:

Definetly leave errata 94 disabled as it will give you trouble with instablity, as for 123 I usually leave it disabled as it affects memory bandwidth.Quote:

When enabled, the processor will not bypass the L2 cache to prefetch data from the system memory.
When disabled, the processor will continue to bypass the L2 cache for certain cache line fill requests. This improves its performance.
When set to Auto, the BIOS will query the processor to see if it is affected by the bug. If the processor is affected, the BIOS will enable this BIOS feature. Otherwise, it will leave it disabled.
If your processor is affected by this bug, you should enable this BIOS feature to prevent the processor from hanging or corrupting data. But if your processor is not affected by this bug, disable this BIOS feature for maximum performance.
so how would you test whether the CPU has the bug ot not
can you think of a way to force the CPU to prefetch data from the ram,,, im not sure at all how to put it to test,,,Quote:

mag|c>curious, which shop in Denmark did you buy this from?
Did not think anyone had them in stock here yet ;)
Update>aaahh found it ;)
man, this is just plain weird, core1 prime's away 2900Mhz <1,45v and core0 will fail, >1,45v core0 will prime and core1 will fail!
Also temps it sky high 52-56 degrees at 1,47v with CNPS 9500, and 70++ degrees pwmic - I have put a 92mm fan above now it'll say below 55, that's just sick since it never went above 45 degrees without cooling with my san diego.
I think the limit for this chip with my cooling will be around 2850mhz, one day I'll be brave and that of the top, but I just saw a picture of a topless 170, smd thingys on one of the sides is just next to the epoxy. (Seems a little more tricky than with my ol' venice...)

see my sig for my latest stats... and i still have a ton of room to work with! grats on everyone else' great 170's as well!
so there is hope for th enewaer ones then......Hmm will i buy ir not ?
this cpu seems to have either a very weird or a weak mem ctrl, my ballistix did 295mhz 2,6v 500% dual win memtest on my old cpu, can't even get them stable at 275mhz 2,7v now.

I think I might take the chance and remove the IHS this weekend, but the cnps 9500 is so darn heavy, so I'm wondering where can I buy the foam pad the Athlon XP chips have on it?
-
Anyway here is the picture update! :D
It have just reach the 20 minut mark at the current setting. :woot:
Edit: 35min and still going ;)
Just wanted to show you all how I tested the mem ctrl.
Settings were what's on the priming picture but with 10x275 and less vcore!
I tested drive and data strenght ONLY, with windows MemTest running one session set to 899mb and another one set to All unused RAM, this was the result.
55min memtest = 430%
Edit 2: bah something failed at 38min :s
So..I maybe an idiot, but how did you solve this?...by tweaking drive strength/data only running at 1:1?Quote:

Drive/Data 5/1 seems best, 7-6/3 were better on my old cpu.Quote:

Thanks!!!
Since I am not limited on my mem settings I am now running
Dual instances of Prime95 Large FFT's at 9*314=2826MH.
So far so good, you just made my day!
