(one of the best batch ...)

Seem like those lastest week of CABYE is doing better than the CABNE now..

Very bad attitude...

I wouldn't blame them too hard.

A business really can't go and sell the CPUs on that individual basis.

You see, if they have a bunch of nice and a bunch of not so nice CPUs, what are they going to do?

They cannot take a higher price for the nice CPUs. But nobody will buy the not-so-nice CPUs if the buyer knows it is probably a lemon.

It makes much more sense to let everybody in the hope that they randomly get a good one.

There might be some who sell the known-nice ones seperately but honestly I don't think many shops would bother, too much work for not enough profit, and then you have the guy buying the good ones first complain the CPU doesn't go as high as expected and then get it RMAed from overvolting burnout. Not a good business model.

What's the benefit of shipping CPU's to Norway when they can easily be sold in NL? It is you who assumes that it is this way. You have no idea where yours will from, and neither do I.
Distribution goes generally in one way, unless the demand is very uneven which I doubt in this case. Opteron is very popular. I just don't wan't you to be too optimistic about this, lots of people both in US and Europe have waited much longer than expected for this CPU. The massive demand is global, AMD's production and distribution channels probably have a hard time keeping up.

whoa! KeZzZu, what ram is that and how much voltage? omg 276 @ 2-2-2? !!!!!

I get your point but the answer is simple.
If you want a pretested CPU then buy it there.
If you rely on your luck or want to buy a specific code then buy it somewhere else.

**Davos** · 11-03-2005, 09:20 AM

just a first tester out the box......rubbish ram at the moment but im just working the chip.

its a CABYE 0540 FPAW

**DesertShooter** · 11-03-2005, 10:48 AM

I will have 2 146's next week

Ik hope it's the magic 0540FPMW or FPBW

What do you guys think?

I've forgot to say, 220W powered by a Antec cuz my Mean Well is K.O. (RMA).

**Gadflyii** · 11-03-2005, 11:54 AM

Here is mine

Opteron 150
OSA150DAA5BN
CABNE 0528GPMW
XXXX168G50056

Chip is stable at 3.55ghz @ 1.66v but I am having real trouble with the memory, anytime i attempt to increase the memory speed to above @175mhz, it BSOD's, at any CPU speed. I have a bios flash, drivers, and timings to mess with

Here is a quicky screen shot taken while i was looking for max PI OC, it ran a 1M
@ 3.6Ghz, but crashed when i tried to take the Screen shot.

**ojdr2001** · 11-03-2005, 12:07 PM

Need advice on the best BIOS for DFI NF4 SLI-DR / Opteron 148 for UTT / BH5

Thanks for the help =)

Stable at 3.55 Ghz is incredible... you have any screenshots of prime @ 3.55? That SS is only 3.4. And what's teh cooling?

yesss, inquiring minds would like to knowwwwww

**computersmsa** · 11-03-2005, 12:33 PM

Code:

Opteron 146 CABYE 0540 FPBW
DFI nF4 Ultra-D 702-2 BTA
Puit Cooling -> Full = ~ 43Â°C
Max Stable -> 3200 MHz @ 1.58V

**Garrett** · 11-03-2005, 12:46 PM

OMG

that's insane... 3.2ghz @ water...

:thumbsup:

**ocZZ** · 11-03-2005, 12:52 PM

How hot is too hot for these things? I have my 148 CABYE running at 3ghz @ 1.66vcore and its currently max'd at 57C when prime95ing. Is this too much or can it take some more?

that's a seriously fast SPI time for the MHz......whoa......if it can reach 3GHz 1M you'll probably go under 27s mark.....people here are having trouble going under 27s even with BH5 running at 273MHz....very nice.....

not that i have posted to the web server yet.

When i get home from work I will work on the box some more. The SS was snapped real quick as i found it's max OC, I got a 1M done at 3.6, but it crashed before i could take a Screen Shot. My board seams to max out around 300 HTT, any advice to stabilize it beyond 300 HTT?

Cooling is a Vaporchill LS

**C0oL** · 11-03-2005, 01:35 PM

Gadflyii: Wow, i am SURE you want to sell me that 3.6Ghz Opty... Don't you?

**Gadflyii** · 11-03-2005, 01:38 PM

No, but i got a 148 CABNE i have not even opened yet....

**lilkevin715** · 11-03-2005, 01:45 PM

I can't believe a Opteron 144 CABYE sold for $499 on ebay! Geez some people are hella stupid on ebay. Linky

**TEDY** · 11-03-2005, 02:03 PM

ebay is buncha stupid people.

**ixtapalapaquetl** · 11-03-2005, 02:08 PM

Just got home with my 175 CCBWE 0530TPMW. Will post some preliminary results tonight after a while. Can someone PM me with info on how to run instances of SuperPi on each core?

Use Prime95. Extract the archive in two separate folders and run one instance from each folder. Double-check in the task-manager that every instance will get 50% total, that is 100% of each core.

SuperPI for stability testing is like getting drunk in the rain ...

**Wiker** · 11-03-2005, 02:16 PM

Hello allihopa everybody

Tomorrow I will hopefully recieve my new opteron 144 s939.
How well do you guys think this will do on a DFI lanparty-d, BH-5, and a zalman 7700 cooler. The cpu is a CABGE with a batchnumber about (...0026).
Thanks for answers
