What are the 148s on newegg looking like? Anybody buy one recently? How are they OCing? Basically I just want as much info as possible on these, to decide whether or not to buy one. =P

I'm going to be buying a new processor in about 2 weeks and I'd love to get a nice Opty. I want to be able to get at least ~2.6 on air if I'm spending $230.

Also, this Geil I have is actually PC4000, that'll be good, right? If it's meant to run at ddr500, the Opty should love that, yeah? I bought this a while ago expecting to go to a Prescott =\ It won't even do 2-2-2 at 200mhz ~_~
 
Get a 146 from ZipZoomFly.com. I got mine today CABYE and it's running 2.7 on air at stock voltages

189 with free 2-day shipping.
 
I'll let you know monday when my opty 148 OEM from the egg will be here.
 
I just recently got my 148 from them. So far I have it at 2.9G with a big typhoon, voltage at 1.47. So it's 263x11 with the ram divided down to around 220, HTT is x4.
Very pleased but I feel I got lucky getting the CABNE so late in the game.

Is that prime stable ?
I can use windows at over 3ghz but it fails prime almost instantly.

mine too, runs everything fine but errors out of prime in like a minute.
 
Got mine from newegg.com. It is a CABYE core. I haven't had a chance to get it up and running cause of a faulty motherboard but I am glad I found the core I was hoping for. Now we'll have to see if it lives up to its reputation once I get all the parts.
