0550 UPMW vs VPMW

**nealh** · 02-12-2006, 10:34 AM

I see alot of post all over on these chips...I wonder if there is an easy way to collate the data...

it seems for many the :

0550 UPMW is best available(obviously 0530 are great too but not really around much) 170>165???

0550 VPMW look very good or just ok??? 165>170???

0551..too few around

Do I have it all wrong

I would like to see more posts in KITT's thread

I have a 165 0551UPMW that is running 2700 at 1.4 volts prime and 3d stable that I got from newegg last week..

**nealh** · 02-12-2006, 10:48 AM

Very Nice Kris...

Very nice!

I have a 0551 VPMW, with 1.4v it can boot into windows at 2700, I haven't tried any higher volts as I need some better cooling,
I'm almost positive that I can get it primestable at 2700 maybe a little higher

The one in my sig opty 170 0550 UPMW is prime stable @ 1.375 in BIOS if this could help.

I really think that 170 0550 UPMW is better than 165 0550 UPMW (it was in my case)

wow..great chip..you lucky bast*rd

I am very jealous...my 170 0546 xpmw does "only" 2700

**ben805** · 02-12-2006, 11:48 AM

there is no guaranteed in overclocking, but so far the 170 0550 UPMW appears to clock higher with lower vcore than any other steppings, there's a few vpmw that clock very well but then other vpmw only do 2.7Ghz, so you probably have better chance to get lucky with 170 UPMW instead of 165.

mine is prime and game stable, at 2.9Ghz @1.40v(BIOS 1.42v) on air, or 3.20Ghz @1.52v on phase change.

**nealh** · 02-12-2006, 12:35 PM

I understand about YMMV with OCing

many 0546 xpmw do better than mine

of course it could be me too...

**tHe_jOkeR** · 02-12-2006, 01:52 PM

in germany UPMW and VPMW are both very good
but VPMW seems a bit better....

**ocZZ** · 02-12-2006, 03:02 PM

I have a 165 0550 upmw that is running at 2.8ghz @ 1.4v (bios)/1.38 (windows). It also does 2.7ghz at stock volts and 2.75ghz with .04%. This is on air w/ big typhoon and open case.

**Repoman** · 02-12-2006, 03:08 PM

0550 VPMW (CCB1E) here..

It will do 2763 with 1.4v, and a little under 2800 with 1.425. KITT needs to update the database

**iMAX** · 02-12-2006, 05:07 PM

170 0550 VPMW dual prime stable at 2.9G on air with vcore 1.4V (1.42V in bios)

**ExtraPickles** · 02-12-2006, 05:37 PM

Both Prime stable...

170 0530TPMW 2770 vcore set on auto - reads as 1.31v in BIOS
170 0550UPMW 2800 @ vcore set to 1.425 - reads as 1.39v in BIOS

-pickles

**nealh** · 02-12-2006, 05:45 PM

well it looks like the

0550 VPMW(CCB1E)
0550 UPMW

both look very sweet

I am looking to try and get cooler running 170..as I fear my 1.5v in summer of FL will require a downclock to maintain reasonable temps on air....

**guess2098** · 02-12-2006, 05:46 PM

the only 3G 170 is 0550VPMW! but in US i haven't see it!

at least from NewEgg Mwave Wintec Malabs. i went to those places every other day

looks like mine is neck to neck comparing to yours...same clock and same vcore, but my IHS is off to keep the heatload down though

UPMW vs VPMW

IHS off vs IHS on

Big Typhoon vs Ninja

VPMW will win the game

**no_n|ck** · 02-13-2006, 03:10 PM

^^ yep, it seems tho..you crazy germans have taken all vpmw's

i hardly found 1 in-stock and order it right away

hehe i do not have at least one of those suckers :P
i have a UPMW hehe

Pete took all the VPMWs

**ben805** · 02-13-2006, 03:27 PM

Indeed..iMAX has a better chip, there has got to be more of those super chips out there somewhere in the US, I read on the other thread a 165 vpmw broke 3.0Ghz on air as well.

**Justintoxicated** · 02-13-2006, 03:27 PM

I got a 0551 VPMW 2700MHZ @ 1.39V (MBM5 reports) Set to 1.425 in bios

Got this CPU From Monarch.

This is water cooled, I didn't play much just set it to 1.45V and jumped right to 2700, it was prime stable (17 hours) so I lowered the voltage untill it became unstable. (kind of backwards but it works for me :P)

It might clock Higher I'm not sure, but it took alot of volts to boot up at 3ghz..and it was not stable (could be the MB though whichi s a DFI expert) (Booted with 1.6V) I'll probably leave it at 2700 though...I guess it's not a very good stepping

Something in my system does not like over 300 MHZ Could be the MB? I dunno...

**EmineM** · 02-13-2006, 03:31 PM

can any other CCB1E 0550 VPMW Users report on cold bug ? I cant even boot into windows with -1Â°C seems like CCBWE 0550 UPMW is easier on the cold bug issue seeing bens scores with phase change.

**003** · 02-13-2006, 03:41 PM

I have a CCB1E 0550VPMW that does 2750MHz w/ 1.4v, and 2.8GHz with 1.525v. I have not tried to go higher yet. I keep it at 2750 because temps are high at 1.525v. Can't say much about the cold bug, I'm on air.
