Garrett :

where did you get yours?
I've been searching for almost one week now, but it seems all 146 are sold out in germany.

I drove to Alternate (in Ridderkerk, Holland of course, you probably know it) and just bought one, they had only 6 left, I got this stepping and I feel lucky

Problem is... earlier you could order by phone and they'd give you a AUSxxxxxx number and then you could walk in and pick it up, you'd be out in 10 minutes, but they don't do that anymore.
Some people have to wait like 45 minutes in the shop before it's their turn, so some of them used their mobile phones to order stuff so they'd be ready in 10 minutes, so Alternate decided they don't hold them apart anymore
Customers in the shop go first now, they say

so no one with a 144 CABNE 0540 BPMW to post results????

i had 3 of them, 2 RMA'd and 1 currently testing. It's SuperPI 32M stable @ 2430 @ 1.392v. Will try to push harder, but i don't think this thing will go much higher. I already tried to do a SPI run @ > 2500 MHz, but i need a lot more voltage.

Go for a CABYE 0540, they should still be available and chances are fairly high that you will hit 3GHz with good cooling.

This one is for Garret , Garret what cooling do you use?

Hi there, short term lurker and my first post - I got a CAB2E 0540 FPMW the other day, and I am extremely dissapointed

I am having to run it at 2475mhz at 1.55 volts currently - anything higher clock wise and it fails all of my stress tests, within 6 seconds. Even with 1.6volts and slightly higher - 2700mhz on 1.65v is a no go. Super pi fails doing the 128k calculation never mind the 1m calculation.

Using an NF3 Ultra (Epox 9NDA3J) even back flashed to what is considered the best o/c BIOS of the April 2005 version.

I have an AKASA 460W Paxpower CPU,
XP-120 with L1A Panaflo fan
x800 xt pe

I think the CPU is just a really poor clocker, I have tried with the timings and ram dividers on the lowest they can go - but no luck. So far I have run about 10 hours of SP2004 and I think the clock speed I am at is stable now. Also the HTT is set at 3X (275HTT)

Temps under load are 47-49C

A bit late but, I'm on watercooling
