jeeewiz....you guys are running 3.4 under phase and your result made my 3.0 on air looks like child play, my PCICE single stage is sitting in the corner giving me a smirk

**Rufus7** · 10-23-2005, 01:49 AM

@Ben805 i have bought a WC to get higher than 3Gig on good Temps. Next week the
WC System will bei completed. And than i will go for 3,2Gig Primestable or more.
And the CABNE is the best CPU iÂ´ve ever had. Not much Vcore but a plenty of clocks.

It's really funny how these optys really changed how we now look at oc's.

BO(before opty) and AO(after opty).

BO if you had a cpu that would hit 2800-2900 it was above average.
AO if your cpu doesn't hit 3000 it's below average.
BO on single phase 3000-3200(non-FX) was pretty good.
AO on single phase 3400(non-FX) is starting to be comon.

This cpu really raised the bar.

screenshot of my 2.9, hey at least i found the way to only campture the part of the screen i want. still aint installed PS to resize so i can directly post into the thread the way i want to.... bu it dont matter anyhoo i spose.

Have you tried messing with DQS?

**gundamit** · 10-23-2005, 06:20 AM

I thought I should be able to get Prime stable at between 3.2 and 3.3ghz. I ran off 3.3ghz "large FFT" and did over two hours on it. But its just too boring. I had to stop it. Here it is for what its worth.

**Eljefe62** · 10-23-2005, 06:41 AM

I am in the 3GHz club on air! Not stable (yet), and running on a divider... All this on my pos Neo2.

**el rolio** · 10-23-2005, 08:19 AM

yea i can get to windows at 315x10..... wont even bother trying to stabilize that heh.... so im stayin at 2.9 it seems. and you know what? thats fine with me, my winnie took me to 295x9 and this is now a nice speed bump, and fun.... and hot.

**Eljefe62** · 10-23-2005, 08:46 AM

I'm perfectly OK with 2.9, but if I can get to 3 w/out much effort, why not? I am having an issue with my Neo2 only allowing me 2t on the mem. I thought it was the mem controller on my 3200+, but the Opty does it too. I am convinced it is the crap Neo2 and that I have slightly scorched something using the ddr booster (not currently using it). Could I just have bad luck with processor mem controllers? I don't think a brand spanking new Opty would have such a hard time with 1t...

**gundamit** · 10-23-2005, 08:46 AM

Got all three of my benching sets of memory to 3.4ghz with the 148. Last one to get a chance was the BH-5.

**eR1k** · 10-23-2005, 08:56 AM

Beautiful results

yea I know....seems like only the CABNE and some CABYE can hit the magic number, though I'm wondering how well these opty's memory controller going to hold up with all the abuse we're throwing at them, I sure hope they built like tank and last for a little while

2hr of prime at 3.3Ghz is impressived!! thanks for running it and if you can do higher...like 3.35~3.4, please post the result whenever you have a chance as well

Looks like i started something with the image thing. In the interest of lighting a candle I started a thread on image resizing and free image progs.

http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...83#post1099083

The short version of it is download the image viewer from here http://www.faststone.org/. It doesn't seem to have spyware or vir's but use at your own risk. It's pretty cool and you can save as lots of different file types and all that. Saving as a 256 color gif or png seems to give good results and small size or just save as jpeg and lower the quality slider under save as-advanced .

I actually like the pics in the forum better than thumbs or links but just not so huge and at too high color so they take all day to dl.

Well i wouldnt hold my breath, prime95 stable with just watercooling for 3.2ghz just aint going to happen. Now if you chill the water than that a different thing.

So are you going to chill your water? id be amazed if your chip could do 3.2Ghz prime95 stable with normal water.

**Fallengod** · 10-23-2005, 10:49 AM

I dont see why. Peoples chips do 3.1 on air... Whats another 100mhz on water.

**njkid32** · 10-23-2005, 10:53 AM

Here is a prime run at 3.3ghz. Its only an hour and could have kept going but didnt want to wait anymore. Jeez I even hate waiting for a 32m run. LOL Anyway ram needs tightening up and fine tuning but here is it...

Alot, 100mhz after 3.1 is a bunch if your on regular water. I agree with mongoled.

You may be able to ss or 1-8m but I wouldn't bet the farm on 32m at 3.2 on reg water.

No i wont chill my water for the first. I want to see how high the chip is going under normal watertemps. Later i will try to chill the water a little bit, but not too much.

**mbm** · 10-23-2005, 11:29 AM

Have been offered this stepping
Opteron 146 cabye 0536 gpmw.
Is this much better than my CABGE?

**Rufus7** · 10-23-2005, 11:41 AM

mbm look here if you want to see how high the Steppings goes.

Like dogsx2 said,

the peeps doing 3.1ghz on air are doing just screen shots, I aint seen no 3.1Ghz screen shots of prime95 on air, have you?? These chips once they go past 3Ghz, need alot more cooling then below 3ghz. Id be very impressed if a saw a 3.1ghz prime95 stable chip on normal water, nevermind 3.2Ghz, then I would be

and cursing the person who had it!@! LOL

Good luck with tht chip Rufus, from your air results it sure shows alot of promise

**Rufus7** · 10-23-2005, 11:50 AM

Heres one Screenshot on Air with my APMW at 3050Mhz on Air. And one who failed at 3100Mhz on Air.
