The Official Opteron 939 Overclocking Thread

What with this MaxTcase thing?
Higher temperature rated chips are best?

Yup mine is 67C also.

Just something which I have mentioned be4 something I think is relevant because alot of the talk here is abt wht vCore a particular chip needs to get a certain mhz.

Its no good saying

'woot, im using 1.45v for 3Ghz stable'

if in reallity your vCore is 1.52v. Why I say this? Well my Ultra-D overvolts between 0.04-0.07v depending on the setting chosen in bios. Another member who posted in this thread (soz cant remember name) also said their DFI overvolts by abt 0.07v, now these are quite large differences from bios reading and mulitmeter reading points.

If their is going to be any chance of correlating data to find if MaxTCase has any real meaning then 'real' vCore needs to be taken into account!!
