Hey guys, currently I am running my new opteron 144 that I snatched off newegg and got it today.

That is what I have currently, I am running a DFI Expert SLI board.

Anyways, I am wondering if there is a specific program to test the HTT/FSB speed?

It's currently at 310, but I dont know if prime95 is testing the HTT speed.

Also, I have not tried any higher speeds, I just set the vcore there today @ 1.39 then bumped 310 right away to get 2.8. ( Since that was my goal in the first place, after selling my FX-55 which did 3.05ghz, was to get at least 2.8 out of the opty. )

Ofcourse I did all the necessary things like lower LDT speed to 3x and ETC to get 310, just wondering what's the right program to test HTT speed.


Ugh I wrote too much, O well. :)
 
ALSO, the stepping is

Bah, priming stable at 3ghz right now..... LOL holy crap. I am gonna let this baby run overnight and see what happens....

3.0ghz @ 1.392 vcore is insane... 1.2ghz overclock.. guess I lucked out.
 
its SUPER DUPER nuts! its like the cc___ steppings are just super tuned processes! gosh i want one! haha

good job good luck. i wanan see the 15-24hr prime screen tho so i can be 100% happy for your cheapO-fastO purchase haha
 
yup ty, working on that, it's currently around 8-9 hours.
 
You are lucky as hell to get that proc so recently with that stepping. My ram is killing me but i did have mine at 3 :p
 
Use a divider? :) I am running a divider also, my ram is at 259 right now even with the divider hehe.

I was actually willing to put 1.5vcore on this thing, just to reach 3ghz... but I guess that's not the case now :)
 
HOLY FUCKING SHIT!

You lucky sonovabitch! I have a 148 and its stepping SUCKS. I have it at 2.8 and thats as far as it will go PERIOD on stock voltage. I have to put the Vcore at about 1.65 in order to get it even somewhat stable at 3.0.


I really wish I had gotten either a 144 or 146, I've been hearing far superior over clocks with those chips compared to the 148
 
hehe no thanks!

Anyways, 3.2ghz on same volts seems to be pushing it.... now it's crashing in windows at 3.2 :(

Now I am up to 1.44 vcore to be stable in windows @ 3.2.... too nervous to prime it yet since this will probably be the first time it fails in prime hehe.
 
Put the Vcore up to 1.5 and pump it to 3.2. I can almost guarantee it will not fail. You can probably get it to 3.3 at that voltage.
 
Whats your Super-Pi 1m time?

And that tests FSB (somewhat)if you were still looking for something...
