I'm still in the middle of pushing this CPU to as far as it goes but I can't help it, I want to brag now! :) I just bought a Sempron 64 2800+ (1.6ghz) and sofar I've went past 2.4ghz... that's a 50% overclock! And here's the real kicker: on *stock* voltage and *stock* HSF! Here are a pic so far:

Here is my Sempron CPU info:

SDA2800AI03BX
LBBWE 0533CPBW

I'm running this on an Asus K8N (non deluxe) with some 256mbx2 of RAM with Samsung TCCC chips. I haven't begun raising my memory divider yet as I'm still seeing how far I can push this CPU.
 
OKay I guess I haven't been keeping up with the reviews but it looks like these chips are able to do these speeds fine. Guess I'm not the only one getting these speeds. :p
 
I had one way back in December that did about 2.2-2.25 on the stock cooler on a VERY limited motherboard.
 
I haven't done any 3d benchmarking yet but right now I only have a lousy Radeon 9250 on this system :( Which 3d bench programs are you interested in? 3dMark05?

what does it 3d bench? (sandra, etc are useless)

I just ordered a DFI LANPARTY UT nF3 250GB board to abuse some Semprons we have at work. :D


xbitlabs pushed a 3100+ to almost 2.7Ghz link The gaming scores are unreal, it beat a 4000+ in some cases
 
that is insane!

how are you testing stability? prime95 for 24hrs or just boot into windows?

 
Holy crap! I can't believe I'm still running at 2.4 (No headroom!) on my A64!

I'm going to go exchange this thing for a Semp! That's a damn fine overclock!
 
nice o/c. reminds me of my "little duron 600 that could" that has been running at 1100 for going on 5 years
 
by the way, you should run the small FFT's torture test rather than blend to test cpu stability. blend spends a hell of a lot of time in the memory, which doesnt prove jack. Not knockin your oc here, I think its great, just be sure to use the small fft test 12+ hours to ensure the cpu is REALLY stable ;)
