How well do the 3000+'s overclock?

**#ball3r** · 05-12-2003, 08:43 PM

I got a chance to get a 3000+ new for $150 cheaper then I can get it in a store and was wondering how well these oc? I got a 1700+ dlt 0310 doing 11x225 2,2,3,3 DC 1.8v now and would like to know if anyone has been able to hit 225-230fsb with this cpu? I do need another cpu for my gf's computer, cause she's becoming quite the little gamer

not sure what the stepping is, and correct me if i'm wrong don't all bartons have the same stepping? Right now i'm using a wicked 1700+ that is only 2 weeks old and running 2.475ghz (11x225 DC sync) 2,2,3,3 1.8v in my 1 week old Abit NF7-S 2.0. I'm using 2x256 Ocz 3500el dc with a msi geforce4 4400. I have got 15500 as you can see in my sig, but also have scored 15670 and not saved it . I have 2x256 Twinmos 3200 BH-5 on the way as well as a Hercules 9700 pro oem. I'm pretty much selling my ge4 and the slower of the 2 rams to get the 3000+ and will have $100 left over .

Oh and those 1700+ scores are also on air cooling by an slk-800 w/TT smart fan 2.

i seem to have seen some beter OC's from 2800's. just from what ive seen. and between the two the mhz speed is VERY little.

I'm just thinking for the price. If it's not that great I could probably just sell it.

**Evil_Spork** · 05-12-2003, 10:55 PM

i would never buy one. the 2800 is so much less(kinda) and the clock is such a little differance.. i woudl get the 2800 if any. or maybe try out a 3200? since you seem to have some extra blingage.

**#ball3r** · 05-12-2003, 10:56 PM

like I said to clear it up the 3000+ is for 2800+ price?

it seems pretty even to me. i say the 2800 or 2500 is the best bang for the buck.

My 3000+ retail came with the same new aqxda steppings that the 3200+ has. All the bartons give or take a few will do about 2500 +/- on air if you are lucky.

228 on the 3000+ aqxca

**Merenfreak** · 05-15-2003, 02:14 AM

228 x 12,5, that is what my 3000+ 0309 is doing in a Prommy.
