Opteron 144 Venus testing

[Absolute_0]

Monarch/Newegg will go through such tremendous quantities of these that in the first week all the first batches will be swept away.

[VulgarHandle]

dosn't monarch usually do pre-orders before they're released, yet, haven't seen it yet, hmmm

[VulgarHandle]

well, just checked my email

i had emailed monarch couple days ago, here's they're response

Thank you for your request. We will add this product to our site. It
should be available within the next week. Please let me know if you
have further questions. Thank you for your time and patience. We
appreciate your business.

He tested the other one to find it's doing 3.1Ghz at the same settings

You pulling me leg? U got me to PM him begging him to send me the 3.1Ghz to Cyprus!!!

LOL

Hey Dinos,

Maybe all these CPU's are CABNE0530APMW, isnt tht a stepping for FX57 chips (think i read tht somewhere) anyone care to specualte tht these are rebadged FX57's!

With seen alot of talk abt the different 'qualities' of the Opteron brand, but is it safe to assume tht seeing the chips have the same stepping they are coming from the same production line and same silicon??

Just imagine, 1mb FX57 chips being rebadged for the 'server' market being systematically picked up by avid overclockers, anyone care to imply that AMD is doing this on purpose, hehehhehee



Anyway I got some details on the 3Ghz run of the chip im going to get, Ive been told tht the run was on STOCK COOLER, tht it was a SuperPI test tht was run to check for stabilty (I imagine just a quick 1M) and the voltage was 1.55v. It was a smash and grab job done very quickly (well he's got a store to run!).

Great to see more results, im sure we r going to be flooded very soon; spoilt for choice; nice

sounds familiar.........i wish my CPU is the same stepping....just got to be patient now.....

hehehe couldnt resist, had to go looking



CABNE0530APMW FX57's...

First link to evidence, 2fast4u

Second link to evidence, Harley's

and I found a CABNE0530RPMW

Anyone spot any more let us know!!

oooooh this seems very interesting. could these be rebadged fx57's

R and A are the same thing. thanks to ocdetective for this:

First Digit is either R through to X for Monday to Sunday or A through to G for same. M means mixed assembly lot.
P merely means Penang
3rd digit is the sequential batch of cores used in assembly - so if they are using the first batch for that day its an A second batch is B and so forth. M means the cores used in the assembly came from different batches.
The existence of a W for the 4th letter means mixing of wafer lots in the core fabrication was prohibited. Its absence means the wafer lots could be mixed when making a batch of cores.
0450 etc is self explanatory and is the week of assembly.

No rebadged ...
CABNE0530APMW are good die, and AMD use it for FX-57 and Opteron of these week ... high end and pro CPU !

But rebadged -> No sense ! No logic (Sorry, I haven't the right word in english).

illogical

for those wondering, my opteron is >3 hours prime stable at 2.7ghz with 1.47v. didn't bother trying for longer

[groovetek]

I've got a bad feeling we won't be getting CABNE0530APMW here in Australia... the good ones always get snapped up before they have a chance to pop up here...

Only time will tell - not to mention the ETA is still at least over a week... if these are already hard to source in the USA... then I have a bad feeling they won't be available for a long time here in Aussieland, and if they did surface eventually, it would most likely be a later week.

[computersmsa]

ozzimark --> That's good word

[Rezag1000]

lol, monarch dosent have em yet.....

[VulgarHandle]

like i posted, monarch said next week, but like i said right before that, they usually take pre-orders before they get new stuff, hmmmmm

maybe it will be OK....here is a link with an Opteron 150 (0534SPMW) doing 3100MHz with 1.52V 1M SuperPI

Yeh dude i got this feeling to, knowing our luck

Ahhaa logic, is the keyword

Simple question (the answer may not be so simple, hehehee), why would it be illogical to rebrand an FX? They cost the same to enginneer, the same to produce (if we take out the testing costs, assuming they DO test more stringently for Opterons), and both are at the highend of the market.

Im not saying they ARE rebadged, just trying to make some XS members think a little more, LOL . The ONLY thing we have to draw the conclusion tht they arnt re-badged is the word of AMD, now remember they r a corporate company, do we take wht they say for face value?

A more interesting piece of information, which will come form independent sources is tht which is ongoing here at XS. The discussion abt pre-amble could go some way to proving/dissproving the argument at hand. If it comes to light tht the pre-amble timing for BH-5 on Opty 939 varies from A64 then their would be a strong case tht the Opty are NOT re-badged. Now if their is no distinct difference the argument will continue



So where do you place the value of logic? Logic can only be applied when the parts of an equation you are dealing with r taken as fact, if we dont know 100% tht we r dealing with facts (i.e. Opteron 939 are tested more throughly) then logic cannot be applied. Only by making the pressumption, tht AMD is honest and true can we say tht Opty 939 is NOT rebadged.

Personally I dont think we will ever really know if they r re-badged or not!

maybe it will be OK....here is a link with an Opteron 150 (0534SPMW) doing 3100MHz with 1.52V 1M SuperPI

Nice find Dino



Later weeks have different steppings, looks like alot more posts to follow, heheheee

hehehe nice sig you got there.......lol

[the_chad]

these look promising, just hope we get to see some decent steppings heh

i think we'll need eva2000 to properly test these CPUs....i'd trust his final word on these.......happy days ahead

[QUOTE=mongoled]

Because AMD make die and put it in package ... => Processor !
AMD will not make a FX-57 and clean the CPU for write Opteron 144 on it !
It's 100 % illogical !

AMD make die, they know if these die are good or not, they use for few CPU as FX-57 and Opteron !
But take a FX-57 and rebadged it in Opteron 144 is fault and doesn't exist.

But you can say that AMD use the same quality die for FX-57 and Opteron (Maybe not all).

Fully agree with this statement

Can you explain why you belive this? Maybe I misunderstood you.

Thanxs ozzi for your finding,

But just like any investigation we need more evidence which im sure we will find soon

hehehee

-EDIT-

My friend just got his, booted up at 3Ghz 1.5 volts, hes gonna do testing l8r, he has to go back to work.
