A64 Newcastle 754, What does yours do?

[scrible88]

Please post the stepping/cooling/max overclock/voltage of your socket 754 Newcastle A64. I'm very interested in seeing what others have achieved.

Mine: 3000+ Newcastle 754

ADA3000AEP4AX
LBAZC 0445XPMW
Z492605k40077

Max screenshot stable: 2920mhz, aircooled, 1.75v
Max bench stable: 2870mhz, aircooled, 1.75v
Max 24/7 stable: 2750mhz, aircooled, 1.65v

Under prommy @ r404a - around one and a half year ago:

Stepping?

[bias_hjorth]

I dont recall.. It was a genuine newcastle.. Thats about as far as I can remember - Average / good clocker at the time.

[scrible88]

Did they get better over time? I would love to throw mine under some extreme cooling.

[bias_hjorth]

Indeed they do / did..

I remember when the first 64´s came out -- Anything past 2700MHz was outstanding..

i can't get that lol see avatar, though i only have a sempron but still

Not bad!

Damn sweet for a budget chip.

[scrible88]

I guess almost nobody is on 754 anymore? :'(

I got a 3200+ that did 2.6ghz on stock cooler and pos msi k8t neo fsr...need a different mobo...got a dry ice container...never know what she could do

0415, 260x10 1.6vcore 24 hour prime stable, above 265 and it become stupidly unstable (typical of the 0.5 version)

air cooled s754 3400 newcastle:
1.55v 2.5ghz
1.65v 2.65ghz
1.72v 2.7ghz+

24/7 stable - 1.72v gets too hot with case closed

hi there!

mine does 2400mhz @ 1.4 vcore
max 2550 mhz stable...

don't really know what's the problem but it isn't such a great overclocker
I've got a sucky memcontroller, I have to use 166 mhz divider for 2400MHZ,
otherwise my pc reboots on 1T timings :S

really a bugger that my cpu sucks... but I've got really sucky heatpaste (free stuff) maybe that's the prob.

thx for all the stepping info, If I get new heatpaste I'll write down the stepping and post it here.

I seriously doubt the thermal paste is your issue. If your temperatures are good replacing the thermal paste won't give you anything.

hi,

http://home.tiscali.be/phidico/Xyus/...e%20screen.jpg
my suicide screen... If I compare it with yours...

You've got a really good oc cpu!!
If you're going to sell it, contact me

My best superpi is 35 sec, offcourse not stable.

But maybe I've got a bad memcontroller (main guess)
I have to use 166mhz dividers for to reach 2400mhz, My pc is benchstable on 200mhz dividers but after a while it reboots while Internet, chatting, It's still a big mystery for me! When I change it to 2T timings the problem is solved so...

Mine does 2700mhz on air PiFast stable, 0504 with 6xx batch number

put more volts through your ram

[Xyus89]

hi,

2.85v? not enough?

change heatpaste tot as5 won't solve the problem I think, but isn't there a change that my memcontroller get's to hot or something like that?

on whatever divider I do 2600mhz isn't stable with superpi for 10sec's :s not even on 2T timings or what voltage.
I still have to try NB voltage adjustments, but I doubt it.

My max on air so far is 2.7ghz. At 3ghz my pc boots but I get a raid dectection screen even though I'm not using raid...

[Xyus89]

now that's one VERY nice Vcore!!!!! to be jalous of!!!

man , people say that I'm lucky with 1.4vcore @ 2400mhz but 1.4vcore @ 2700mhz...

sjeezes, that's one quickly satisfied cpu

Yea my 3000+ NC steps out at 2650 too

[steelballzz]

hey
i replaced my 3000 newcastlle(crapy) 220x10 even with the dfi for a clawhammer(not so crapy.but not good oc)2500 max
i guess if u want real oc 939 is the solution(caa2c)

seeya

[Xyus89]

ok I haven't got the worst oc cpu 2200mhz... that's really bad luck.

Maybe I'll have the chance of to buy a s754 mobile cpu/newark very cheaply...

I don't remember the stepping but Im using a 3000+ NC and its the first stepping that was out. Its on a Asrock K8S8X SIS 755. Its stable on air up to 2.5Gig with 1.55V.

[Gamer]

bought myself a 3400+ newcastle last week, stepping is 0511 DPMW.

got a defective board however, so no overclocking this week.
oh, forgot had a 3000+ and a 3200+ see pic :



don't know anymore what was on the chips though
