Vcore : 1.39v

[Final8ty]

Got another opty 185 last night & im overjoyed that i got a good one it seems.
Just finished dual Prime for 16 hours at 3003Mhz 1.29vCore.
Lets see how low i can get the Vcore before trying to find the max overclock.

Cant seem to register with imageshack it did not send to my Hotmail.co.uk address.

Any other good image hosting sites with same or better features ?

[Final8ty]

Its s good start and will be removing the IHS later & add a 120 rad to the water cooling over the weekend and use AS5 on the water block this time.

Stepping?

Stepping?

My bad.
CCBBE 0613RPMW at least one example of where number 13 is lucky.

0613RPMW looks to be the best Opteron Dual core stepping.. i have only seen great scores from them... all easy over 3.0ghz with <-1.4v , but they are very very rare..you got lucky and got one.

Damn & to think i only got it because the Etailer ran out of FX-60 and emailed me to see if i would cancel or change to another cpu, chose the Opty and saved my self £142.18

Hey guys, I have a question, I didn't get an Opteron 165 for overclocking reasons, I just wanted to rebel against my cousin's comments about the X2 being superior to all other AMD64 chips, now I want to get a X1950XT soon, is 1.8GHz (3.12GHz effectivly) enough to fully utilize a GPU like that, and if not, what would be a good Clockspeed to bump the chip up to?

[Dede99]

i just got my new opty 165 CCBBE 0615EPMW on my dfi nf4 sli-dr board, and i can't go over 2700 prime stable i don't know what i'm doing wrong i just took out my x2-3800 toledo it was 24/7 stable at 2900 with the same ram now i can't go over 2734 right now prime stable, maybe somebody could tell me what i'm doing wrong?
THX for any help

[UK_HELL]

hi all im new to the forum but have been reading the forums for awhile..well ive decided to have a tinker and overclock of a system
hoping to get some fair results out off my asrock dualsata mobo and opteron 144 and my nice speedy patriot pc4200
well brace your selves cos im bound to be asking some stupid questions with in the next few days lol
any one got an idea on what MAYBE possible with this set up on air?

[Bei Fei]

I just got a cab1e 0614bpbw from the egg. Anyone have any experience with this stepping? 3+Ghz?

hi there, i don't know about this stepping, but maybe you could tell me about the CCBBE 0615EPMW i just got and can't go prime stable over 2734 i don't know what i'm doing wrong but this stepping spose to make 3ghz like said on the begining of this thread.
Thank's for any sugestions

Mine goes 3.0 GHz on stock voltage and with a little more juice, this: http://www.diy-street.com/forum/show...&postcount=380

Okay, let me just make sure you realize what you're doing. Chips get tested in rigorous enviornments and let's say an Opteron 170 chip can't handle 2GHz with available error safe headroom, they will downclock it to an Opteron 165 speed and test it again in the same enviornemt, and if it passes, it is boxed up and shipped as an Opteron 165 chip. Overclocking get's rid of an error room that downclocking the chip provided, in other words, your chip will be more prown to fail. You will also shorten the lifespan of the chip, regardless of coolant, and no matter how "stable" the chip is, there's always tiny errors being processed each cycle that seem "unnoticable". Overclocking, on the other hand, gives you extra performance for less money, and it's a very addictive hobby. I'd say just be sure you're going to replace your chipset/CPU/RAM sets within 10 years and you'll probably be okay Overclocking. You may have known about everything I've told you, I just wanted to be sure you knew what you're doing to your chip. In response to your question, DO NOT just find the top speeds that people say and jack the clock speed up that high, take baby steps, up the clock speed 100MHz at a time and test it, then if it passes up it 100 more MHz, test it again, and when it fails to pass as "stable" bump it down 50MHz at a time till the chip can stabilize, that's the best way to OC it in my limited experience with Opteron Chips.

Hi, I want to buy an opty 144, and ive saw some of them on ebay. I have some steps to choose, and i want to know which could be the best for overclock ON AIR

here are the steppings: CAB2E 0619SPAW , CAB2E 0546FPMW , CAB1E 0615BPMW

[Roman16]

Opteron 150 CACJE 0603 CPMW
Is it good and are there anyone who have test one? Is it have cold bug ?

[m_enanos]

this thread is like.... DEAD?

Well finally i bought an opty 144 with this step: OSA144DAA5BN CAB1E0615BPMW 145417AD60058

U think it will oc as the 0614 week? i hope so...

[Draxx]

Why didn't you go dual core?

[m_enanos]

well i dont move to a dualcore because i dont need it, and i prefer single core because are more cheaper and have better performance on games. I bought this opteron cab1e on Ebay, and it cost to me 32euros (40$ +-) + ship cost, and its a NEW item

what do u think about this cab1e 0615 ? Will it overclock as 0614 cab1e week ?
I hope so...

I bought myself this evening a brand new DFI Lanparty UT nf4 Ulta-D mobo on eBay that came out of RMA,... just got out of the bag to test if it functions well.

It will be a replacement board for my ASRock that I'm still using here

I'm curious how high I can get my brandnew Opteron 165 on the DFI.
It's doing now stable 9x300Mhz. @ 1.41 Vcore
Running with G-Skill 2GBHX 3-3-3-7 1T @ 245Mhz.

Stepping

OSA165DAA6CD
LCB9E 0704 TPMW







One thing is for sure, once you had a DFI,.. you wanna go back to one, I use to have a DFI Lanparty UT nf3 250GB

Dang some nice overclocks here, hopefully I'll get a good stepping for my Opty 165
