Post your X2 revision F3 OC and stepping

[vengance_01]

Wow I really need to get a 5600+ now. I also have 1.375 volts to play with which means mabey I can hit 3.1-3.2GHZ in a Dell Machine of all things LOL

[Winterwind]

my old 5600+ didint do 2900mhz 24/7 stable no matter what voltage i gave to it.. it benched 3200mhz with 1.55v

but was it an F3 core from these newer weeks?

damn that sucks. What do you guys think, a X2 5200 EE 1meg Cache, or the 5600+. My goal is 3.0GHZ 24/7 without having to get the 6000+ 125 watt monster

Based on my experience with two 6000s and one 5200 EE (all CCB8F), the former actually clocks higher at low voltage. So long as you get the right stepping, the PR rating doesn't seem to make that big a difference. The 6000s I've played with would certainly need far less than 1.4v in order to reach 3.0 GHz, perhaps even less than most 5200s.

PS: The 5200, 5600 and 6000 all have 2x1MB L2 (in case you thought otherwise).

I've been testing two 6000+ CCB8Fs for a friend. I'll probably end up buying one of them.

After a few hours of testing, I've found that none of them match my 5200+ EE (same stepping) at 1.4v. But the 6000s are superior at low voltage, which was mildly surprising to me.


X2 6000+
CCB8F 0717 UPMW
3.3 GHz @ 1.42v (stable)

X2 6000+
CCB8F 0718 XPMW
3.3 GHz @ 1.38v (stable)


I might update the results should further testing reveal any noteworthy gains. As you can see, I didn't try to max them out, but I prefer to settle at +/- 1.4v. Didn't bother to take any screenshots so far, but I hope you'll take my word on it. These results aren't even close to spectacular, so why would I lie about this?

Nice low voltages. Could almost be called cold They're on the list

ccb8f is totally different processor from ccb6f. ccb8f is just amazing at overclocking. I wish I would have gotten ccb8f. where did you guys got your processor? i got mine at newegg.

[EniGmA1987]

My 5200+ CCB8F was from newegg a ouple weeks ago, the California warehouse.

I wish I would have took advantage of the 20$ off paypal code.

[OpTiX]

i just got a CCB8F 0721TPMW from www.pccanada.com today gonna see how high i can get it togo

[pslee]

i got mine at california too. I live in nyc, so that was a huge trip for my cpu.

Thats a nice one! The list is updated!

Oh yes
But it is a bit worst than your 0723SPMW

Not so sure about that. Running 3400 stable at 1,42v is impressive.
At the moment my cpu isn't stable at any speeds because of a dying HIPER PSU.... It's whining and shutting down all the time, a sure sign of imminent death.. Gonna buy a Seasonic 650W that delivers 52 amps at its 12v lines, just hoping the HIPER won't die before I get the new one...

Here's my 6000+ on air 247 X 13 =3211Mhz
Is the HT Link too high at 1235? should I change the HT multiplier to 4X and where in the BIOS do I do that?

And your stepping is??

If your system is stable, the HT link is ok!

[gOtVoltage]

Just make shure if your on AIR use the best heatsink you can get ......Like the THermalRight 120 Extream if you can fit one or its new Counterpart the IFX-14

[topdog]

Is there a way I can find the stepping without removing the heatsink?
the system is stable at 3211 but it does shut down at 215 X 15

[LIKMARK]

Check out the box, might be there, but I don't think so..

Hi guys, I own a Amd 6000 X2 myself... currently got 13x250 @ stock volts

Ive got FSB on my Asus M2N32-SLi-DLX set 5x250 giving 1250... is this too high? it seems to cope fine... havnet upped any volts on mobo though or should i?

Also one other thing i hear that Amd 6000 currently 125W will be made in a 89W variety soon... will we see even more overclocking?


any help much appritiated

lower the ht multi to 4X. I think you will stress the board.

[EniGmA1987]

If it runs fine then it runs fine. people say there is no performance hit or gain running it anywhere from 800 to 1200, so why not leave it to run at 1250? The reason people all say to try to have it run around 1000 is because that is what it is rated for and many boards will not post if you try and have the HT go too high. If the board works fine with it running that high then there is obviously no reason to lower the speed, especially if he is still on stock volts.
