I want to get a DFI Ultra-D mobo latest revision possible (AD0). I will either buy it or i have a PC Power and Cooling 510 watt (non-sli) PSU available for trade. Will buy/trade quickly, i just got an opteron 165 CCB1E 0609FPMW from Monarch and my Asrock mobo is holding me back.
Yes i've noticed the voltage fluctuation also and i beleive that it is hindering my overclock. I guess thats what happens when the board doesnt have any voltage regulation . But back on topic just brought the chip up to 2.75 no errors, seems to be getting stronger the more i burn it in.
I just got this chip today also...still testing it as of right now, but im running at 2.7 Ghz 1.45 volts right now getting a little hot. Gonna get some more cooling on it and see how it goes, possibly even take the IHS off anyone know where to find a good guide on take it off? Also, I am using a...
Ok so you are right it'll do 2.9Ghz max at 1.55 volts. You forced me to change chips and test out the 146 with the new PSU and voltage mod. Still tho 2.9 is damn good out of a 2.0 Ghz stock chip :p BTW i appreciate your guide on overclocking Eclipse, i was away from computers/overclocking for...
im using an Asrock DualSata Motherboard and the voltage only goes up to 1.45 on it the highest i got stable was 2.83 and that was also hindered by my power supply
CPU-Z Link to 2.83
I know have an X2 4400 and new power supply along with the vcore mod for the Asrock board and have not tried...
I am actually selling one in the For Sale/Trade Forum here:
Opteron 146
Will do 3.0+ Ghz with good mobo/cooling, had mine in an Asrock mobo (not very good for overclocking) and a Ninja heatsink and 120mm medium speed fan running 2.75 Ghz with 1.45 volts
Opteron 146 CAB2E 0604EPAW up for grabs here. Awesome chip, had it running at 2.75 Ghz at 1.45 volts for about 2 months. Since then i've upgraded to an X2 4400 (Its was a tough choice which chip to keep since i can only get the X2 to run at about 2.5 Ghz) Anyway this chip will probaly easily do...
