does a FX-60 & a 4400+ clocked @ FX-60 speeds running at stock voltage run the same... performance wise?
 
could i get a 4400+ @ FX-60 on stock volts on really good air (like SI-120 & Delta)

when paired with a Ulta-D and 2Gb of Mushkin PC4000 Xtreme Performance RAM
 
Aye, all it lacks is the ability to increase the multiplier, which isn't all that important with current high FSB motherboards.

No-one can answer that, only way to find out is to try it yourself as every chip is different.
 
i know clocking is luck of the draw and is dependant of the stepping of the CPU, but in general is it possible
 
My x2 4800 runs @ 2.7ghz on 1.37v on the core(stock cooling) i know its not the same cpu as you but the stepping is more important than anything with overclocking,what i did was ask the shops what stepping they had in stock before i ordered from them and most replyed but not 0cUK :(
Good luck with the search :)
 
Go into the cpu section of the forum that shouid get you started m8 there are a few other places you can try but i dont think i can say on here without going on a little holiday :P
 
Did a quick search for you m8.

CCBWE 0524 RPMW <==== these on air should do about 2.7ghz
CCBWE 0528 BPMW
CCBWE 0522TPMW

Any of the above are good steppings but it all depends on you hardware if it`s up to the job,i`ll tell you what i was told about steppings "it`s just the luck of the draw if you get a good one".

What i will say is try and get as much imfomation about certain cpu`s before you order,i got my cpu on the fourth attempt. :D
 
There's an argument to be had for saying it would actually be faster, especially if you manage to get your ram running at 1:1 because it'll be going faster than ddr400

(ie mine is at 520 when I run at 260x10)

I'll dig my stepping out because it walked to 2.6, admittedly with a voltage increase but still, solid as a rock with sensible temps.
 
Mine is currently at 2.65. I did have to up the voltage a fair bit and as such it's running a little warmer than I would like.
I think I'll try to bring the voltage down and if that doesn't work, it's time for better cooling.

I did manage to get it through a 1M Superpi at 2.8 but 2.65 was the highest I could get it prime stable.

No idea what the stepping is, I'm afraid.

The 0601 (or 0602 - can't remember) steppings of X2 3800s are a very good bunch. Mine does 2.6 at stock volts under air. It could be the same for 4400s but you might have to check.
 
My Opteron 170 - essentially the same chip as the 4400+ - is at 2.7 using the stock cooler and stock volts and running with no problem at all.

Nice. Tried to push any further?
 
If you are keeping it at stock volts then the cooler doesnt matter as the only way your cpu will get hotter is if you increase the voltage.
