    I forgot it doesn't show that. I had to use 1.5v.

    Daveburt714, yes, at stock my system is fine.

    That sucks man... I hate to say it, but it sounds like you may have gotten a turd. I'd be too honest to RMA it if it did what it was supposed to do, reguardless I feel for ya...

    On the bright side, Phenoms are tricky chips keep working at it you may very well be able to get better clocks.

    I'm hoping for a magic BIOS sometime in the future. At the very least I'll probably sell off this chip and buy an AM3 one later on. By then AMD's 45nm will have matured some more.

    Well, it's not real impressive, and I seriously doubt it's 100% stable, but it was good enough for a CPU-Z validation, and it's still holding it's own while I post this message....



    Personally, anything under 10secs on WPrime makes me feel good...

    I'm still working on my tweak abilities, It might actually do better, and let me get an hour OCCT verification..

    Heres the CPU-Z Validation link:

    I love this PhII, and in the end, it's just your average retail chip, SWEET...

    Probably the best thing of all is the ~2.7 NB speed! My 9950 would have never even come close to those clocks...

    Dave, mine is similar to yours clock wise, but require 1.52V for that clock. I've did some 4 core Cinema stuff on previous page, but OCCTP 1H failed after 6 minutes when temp reached 57C. Better cooling or more volts and 3.9GHz in 64bit stable!

    I'm now going to fire up my main ring and figure it out
    RiG1: Ryzen 7 1700 @4.0GHz 1.39V, Asus X370 Prime, G.Skill RipJaws 2x8GB 3200MHz CL14 Samsung B-die, TuL Vega 56 Stock, Samsung SS805 100GB SLC SDD (OS Drive) + 512GB Evo 850 SSD (2nd OS Drive) + 3TB Seagate + 1TB Seagate, BeQuiet PowerZone 1000W

    RiG2: HTPC AMD A10-7850K APU, 2x8GB Kingstone HyperX 2400C12, AsRock FM2A88M Extreme4+, 128GB SSD + 640GB Samsung 7200, LG Blu-ray Recorder, Thermaltake BACH, Hiper 4M880 880W PSU
