The Opteron 146 (cab2e 0604epaw) runs on my Asrock 939dual sata mobo at a max of 2.75GHz on roughly 1.48 volts (bad voltage regulation on this motherboard. I set it at the max of 1.45 and it fluctuates anywhere from 1.47 to 1.50). Reports of people constantly reaching 3+ GHz with this chip at or around 1.5-1.55 volts.
The X2 4400 (CCBWE 0517MPMW) runs on same mobo at a max of about 2.45 GHz on 1.4 v olts (mobo set to 1.350 max). Ater that i cant boot into windows, it starts to load and then a black screen. Even though the person i got it from stated it would run higher (closer to 2.7) and a little research on this stepping shows people having good success with it. This leads me to my next question... I think my power supply is holding me back (my motherboard is too with the limited voltage adjustments) but i get random lock ups even when i have everything running prime95, memtest stable. Like i said the cpu voltage fluctuates alot probaly as much as .05 volts. Next post will be my voltages on my X2 4400 system. Please give me your knowledge.
