Dead daneb

Saaya dude, it's Deneb not Daneb

Mine was a 3700+ San Diego which no longer boots with more than one stick of RAM Socket 939 but same thing (1.35vcore, 3.74vdimm, IMC).

[bldegle2]

my ram is rated 2.3v for 1066 runnings, 1.8v for the 800 and I have been @2.34v ever since getting the 940's, now I am beginning to worry.....

my vote is something else killed the sillycon, i would never run 1.7v unless I had the Prometia unit attached to the CPU.....

bummer, at least we are not reading of massive failures across the board, yet.........

laterzzzz................

Well according to Everest 5 the K10 IMC has a max of 2.9 vdimm and AMD specs for PII is max 1.6v, so I think it was probably the vCore that killed it .........

oh really? lol, my bad

lol, for how long? 3.7 is really pushing it

nah, dont worry man, just a one off so far, and like most people said, it was very unlikely that vdimm killed it, maybe vcore, or it was a freak accident.

2.9 max for 45nm? thats impressive... i wonder if its going to be the same for the ddr3 imc, and if yes, then why intel cant get the same vdimm range working.

Probably process/design differences would be my guess.

Two months?

They're Kingston HyperX, very nice PCBs because they're still 100%. I'm not worried about hurting the BH-5 ICs at all, they're rated at 5v but PCBs that can handle 3.6v+ 24/7 are veeeeeery nice

Hi All,

Just a heads up, heard from a friend that his daneb died after a couple of weeks, probabaly cause of vdimm.

vcore 1.5-1.7v
vdimm 2.3v at all times

killed an X3 with a 3.5vdimm cpu@1.4v my X4 ES has been running several weeks @vcore1.5-1.65v vdimm@2-3.1v no troubles so far

[wolverine]

IIRC the early Phenoms had a rash of dead CPUs due to high vdimm over 2.3v
Thats why I held back on the DDR2 8500 because of the 2.0+ Vdimm required.
In fact I bought nothing but the Gskill 6400 from the start of am2+ because it ran at 1.8v. Try and track down where I read that.
