From Opteron 146 to X2 3800

Superpi doesn't stress the CPU as much as Prime or the 3DMark CPU tests so it'll generally pass under lower volts when the other 2 will causes crashes. What stepping is your x2 3800 btw, it's obviously a good one, my Opty doesn't even clock that far on 1.375v :p

Got it at 290x10 now on a 180 divider. Its a Toledo, stepping 2, revision E6.
Not sure of the codes, i forgot to look before I put it in

Lucky you my 3800X2 sucks , only clocks to 2.6 and core 1 fails over that :(
Mine too! Had it at 2.5ghz @1.4v and it ran @ 54-56 degrees C.

Wouldn't really go any higher! Not impressed!!!

Got a lapped Typhoon on its way for an Opty 165 i got to replace the 3800. Presently at 55 degrees max at 1.375v under a scythe ninja. Haven't decided whether to lap the IHS or pop it off! Would love to get that chip to 3ghz! :rolleyes:

Great stuff with your 3800 though Geeza! You must be chuffed!!! :D :cool:
