CACJE 0546 a good stepping?

n3x · 13 Dec 2005 at 09:44

i was just wondering... anyone tried overlocking this one?

needmorespeed · 13 Dec 2005 at 09:52

i would like to know this to as i have one of these to play with

Reality Bites · 13 Dec 2005 at 10:45

what cpu is it exactly?

needmorespeed · 13 Dec 2005 at 10:56

i have an opteron 146 with that stepping

n3x · 13 Dec 2005 at 11:08

sorry yeah saying what cpu it is would have helped but i was looking for people who have tried overclocking this stepping so i figured they would know

So are you going to say or do we have to guess?

why the roll eyes?

that stepping could be applied to any number of chips.

Just because needmorespeed has a 146 with that stepping, it doesn't give us the ability to predict what chip you have!

sorry can u tell im a noob?

opteron 146 is the cpu in question.

Reality Bites · 13 Dec 2005 at 12:22

doing a quick google shows early signs of them reaching 2.8ish but with 1.55-1.6v

needmorespeed · 13 Dec 2005 at 12:28

i'm at 2.2 at stock so far

Just received my Opty 146 this morning and it's exactly the same stepping as in the thread title.

Unfortunately, I'm not going to have the chance to try mine out anytime soon, so I'll be interested to know how you guys get along. Sounds like the stepping is not that great compared to others, but I'll be happy enough if I can get somewhere near 2.8

I've seen this stepping Opteron 146 max out 2.8-2.9GHz on 1.6v so I don't think 3GHz is doable unless you have very good cooling ie. Phase.

bestyboy · 13 Dec 2005 at 16:07

i have just got this chip.its o/c to 2.9 everything default on asus a8n premium
went to 3.00 won't boot.i will up the volts later to get to 3.00.
i hope it works. 2001 score on 2.9 is 28523.
can anyone get better on this stepping?

matt1 · 13 Dec 2005 at 16:27

Is that stable though bestyboy? I'm sceptical because all the results I've seen with this stepping take significant volts to reach 2.9GHz stable.. unless your chip is just unique in comparison. Either way, nice clock.

bestyboy · 14 Dec 2005 at 04:38

yes it's stable, done all the benchies and played games like fear, day of defeat etc....

n3x · 14 Dec 2005 at 08:08

That is a good clock! Better than my CABYE

Have u run it through prime?

needmorespeed · 14 Dec 2005 at 11:42

i'm at 2.35 at stock volts so far been runing prime all night

bestyboy · 14 Dec 2005 at 15:44

]here's my score now[/URL]

sorry picture won't work
