Look guys...I ordered an Opteron 175 from Monarch for $599. Now they have them for only $525. And they have the Opty 170's for $542...HMMM!
Anyway, they shipped it and I got it today ...guess what...I got a Opteron 170 instead of a 175 like I ordered!!!! The packing slip says 175 and everything, but the processor is in a 170 box and it's a 170!
Anyway, they will get an EAR FULL when they open up today. And I will get the 175 at the NEW price as that's ridiculus that they sell it at the old price when they are going to ship it today.
Anyway, MEANWHILE..I'll be overclocking the 170! WOOT!
So far here I am: Stepping: CCWBE!! UGH!
I'm priming at the above settings right now.... MaxL temps are only 38C w/ devices in my sig. 28C idle.
ODD: For some reason even at 260x10 SPI 1M will give me errors immediately, but prime is passing fine.... @ 280x10 I still get SPI errors. I haven't tested at stock settings, but I think they will give me errors on SPI too....Any ideas here? Before my 4400 was passing SPI 1M and 32M but not passing prime...it's the opposite right now. (I deleted all the files in the spi directory and all that good stuff...no luck). My RAM passed 25 passes of Memtest last evening @ 300Mhz 3.2vdimm...(active cooling). I have ram at 1:1 280Mhz 3-3-3-8 right now...so it's good. SPI is acting up on this opty.....help a brother out..
