well dual 6 cores + mobo for $700 is interesting...
In Windows, I would think something like PhenomMsrTweaker or K10Stat might work. It lets you change multi, CPU VID and NB VID for each C&Q P state. I know 10e overclocked some G34 ES Opterons with RW-Everything, maybe he could chime in on how he did it. If I can find where I put my hdd with 2k8 R2 on it I can pop it in my server and see if I can at least drop the multis and manipulate voltages on my non ES C32 chips.
Haven't heard of anything yet but anxious to see what unfolds later this year. Also, with few exceptions dual-socket AMD motherboards were almost always non-enthusiast type products since the K7 days. Ocing was usually accomplished through some unofficial method not supported by the board manufacturer. Granted, that never stopped the die-hards myself included, but it would be great if someone, anyone would release an OCing friendly board for dual AMD processors. Asus are you listening?
right but can you raise the multis ...
I will have to try this tuesday ... I have 2.3ghz dual 6 cores systems...
I want one for home... if you can raise the multi on regular chips it might be worth it for me...

I can't raise the multis past 11 since I don't have unlocked ES chips, my chips are regular retail locked chips. On my Phenom II 940BE that I used to have I could raise the multis with PhenomMsrTweaker, so I know the program is capable of overclocking.
I get tpf of 23:53 on 2685 with dual 4174s @ 2.3ghz
what power saving features do you have enabled... if your folding... turn off CnQ power now whatever....

they have to be ES chips. for some reason AMD refuses to allow overclocking on their newer server based systems. back in the day it was their big selling aspect with the opteron overclocking but now they try every thing to make it impossible to overclock the new processors even though they are overclocking beasts.
Anyone know of a source for them?
or does one of my protos mobos need a bad flash...
(I don't take stuff home from my labs protos... only others labs... lines could be blurred to easily otherwise...)
Holy Cr*p - it's the OS.
Tweaking memory settings, specifically NUMA settings I got it down to a 30:22 tpf on 6901.
Just installed OpenSuSE on the same machine using a laptop SATA drive - 6901 tpf is now 21:59
Wow. Never would have expected that.

I saw this only thread on Earth which is old yes but I wanted some details on PhenomMsrTweaker. I have a Supermicro H8SCM-F motherboard with the fastest possible 8-core AMD Opteron 4386 which boosts up to 3.8Ghz however it only runs 3.4Ghz in game. Can I use PhenomMsrTweaker to force the CPU into it's highest boost multiplier for gaming at 3.8Ghz?
Thanks
