anyone get a Week 38 3200+ ??

i just got one with a GB mobo..


Setup:
Amd64 3200+
GB
36gb u320 15k.3 scsi hdd
1gb Hyper-x rev. a01 & a02 (02 is bh-5 and 01 is ch-5 i believe)
nv 5900u


Not sure how good that'll do. i think the mobo will limit my oc to a good extent.. but its worth a try. im hopeing for flat out 2ghz..

greetz, avalon

PS: i'm still waitin' for my albatron mobo to arrive

[s e t h]

[CrashOv3r1De]

awesome. congrats to everyone who posted their a64 results...

just curious anyone try to biostar?

i wish abit and asus can get their act togethor so users wont have to use 3rd party mobos

[saaya]

hm i never heard of a good board from biostar... they concentrate on building cheap boards afaik, not quality boards.

[NoOne]

3.3 .. omg

[luihed]

Good overclock there guys..... especially Chalie there with the 3gs on an FX..... seems like teh board of choice right now is the Giga K8N-pro, am I right? Also does anyone know if the non-pro will be able to use the same clockgen to change the multi? thanks and keep up the good work.....

[s e t h]

... sad but true. for best results you need the k8np or k8nnxp. (somebody correct me if i'm wrong please) - same size biois as the socket 940 which even has bios multipliers. making it i think one of only 4 that can do multipliers in the bios
albaton, leadtech, gigabyte (with 940 bios) and epox 8hda3+

i'm not sure which ones do or don't support in windows multiplier lowering or fsb change or exactly what software to use.

Whats the highest stable overclock for EVERYDAY use on an A64 so the user would not have to worry about hd corruption and other problems.?

[Major]

With my new A64 I'm able to hit 2.7ghz under the promie on a K8N-pro, thats with the IHS still in place. It's taking me just over 2.0v Vcore to do that, big change from my first A64 that would do 2.75ghz with only 1.85v. I'll take the IHS off in the next couple of days and post a pic of stepping info.

wondering why AMD doesn't make brownies anymore. This chip could do 10x240 on crappy MSI K8T800 mobo at only 1.6V on air and scored almost 25k with a raddy clocked at 520/390 plain water cooled.

note the stepping:

[QuadDamage]

you mean AAALC i think. yeah, this one was also a review chip. Maybe AMD distributed them brownies only to review sites cos right now you can get only green "9"'s... i visited few stores myself hoping to find at least one brown chip but no one had even one of these.

[zakelwe]

I think the brown ones you got where cherry picked Quad ???? maybe ?

Anyhow the CAAMC's are about now and although mine is green it will do 245x10 on air . I think all AMD 3400's will be the CAAMC.

Kunaak has one that will do 2450-2500 as well but I do not know if it is a CAAKC or CAAMC

To be honest, considering the hoopla over when a Tbred goes from a DLTC3ABCDEFGHIJKLM1 to a DLTC3ABCDEFGHIJKLM2 I'd have thought going from CAAK to CAAM would have been a "big thing"

Wonder what happened to CAAL ? Maybe overclocked to 3Ghz on air so it has gone to the same place as the car that drives on water .....

hi!

how can i set the bios pci/agp frequency? (asus k8v)
where do i have to set this? in this bios itself?

[CrashOv3r1De]

Nice results quad..

btw that pic looks real nice =)

where did you get ur chip?

edit never mind i guess all the brown chips where aaaic's

Those are weel 30-33.

i have a 38 and its Green...

So maybe the Older ones were brown?

[QuadDamage]

Crash,

it's a review chip sent by AMD to tbreak.com.

zakelwe,

yeah i know what you mean, but strange thing is for some reason i can't get any of these new green chips to clock higher than 220fsb 100% stable on that VERY SAME MSI mobo... not to mention that it was a "sample" board i hit 240fsb with. I mean on air of course. OK, i've played like with three of these green ones and they all did around 2.6-2.7Ghz under prommie but still, they don't clock that great on air. By the way, i attained my scores with that brown chip around 25 days before the NDA expired.

[Dissolved]

guess we need to find the Brown ones

[saaya]

well the early a64s were brown, are the older steppings better than the new stuff?

from everything ive seen thats been the truth..

Which is sad..

Anyone know if they could get my a brownie? i got some $ i need to waste

[saaya]

hmmmm ... ask excaliberpc

i guess amd used their best silicon etc for the first a64s since they wanted to release it and needed a high yield to get as many cpus as possible in a short time... now they are using lower quality silicon...

sam with the bartons, the latest bartons oc worse than the very first bartons released...

[bowman1964]

well mine is still climing...up to 2830 benchable right now.....@1.99v.
but it takes a stipped board to do it....disable everything possable and only have one IDE cable attached to a hd.bare to the bone...as you can get..

im starting to think that also. im not where that far into ocing the 64, but i got a ton of crap running in my system, and i cant even get a 200mhz oc.. sad for an amd chip..

im haiving great problems with my mobo also..

So i hope someone else gets lucky

[saaya]

maybe the a64 likes high volts and gets a nice speed bump above 2.05v like the bartons...
