Opteron 146 Stepping

Demon[KcsF] · 15 Jun 2006 at 19:40

Hi all,

Just bought myself an Opty 146 from a well known auction site and was wondering what the stepping is like.

Stepping is CACJE 0545.

Any help on this appreciated peeps

cool look forward to hopefully giving you good news

Demon[KcsF] · 15 Jun 2006 at 20:00

Hope so too.

The person I bought it off said on [insert well known auction site] that it was prime stable @ 3.0Ghz and had a picture as proof(allthough this cant be trusted

)

it could be prime stable easily at that speed. question is: did he test for that speed using phase change and 1.8v? or is it an overclock on air?

Demon[KcsF] · 16 Jun 2006 at 06:07

OK actual stepping is CACJE 0546BPMW and according to the pictures he had on said auction site that was at 1.55v, however he did say that was with water cooling(said 2.8Ghz was stable on air) so hopefully it should be a good one

Hello.

A new opty, eh? What's wrong with your old one, trying to get a bit higher up in the super pi rankings are we?

Got a 146 CACJE 0546 BPMW yesterday, not the best of clockers but a good enough replacement for my 2.7GHz Venice.
2850MHz @ 1.595v , won't do 3GHz

2.8 isnt slow though

Demon[KcsF] · 16 Jun 2006 at 20:56

bestyboy · 18 Jun 2006 at 08:12

Unlucky, I think you have a serious problem with that chip!

Should be running stock at 2000mhz :eek:

What a difference a 'G' makes

Cyber-Mav · 18 Jun 2006 at 11:57

how much did this chip cost you?

bestyboy · 18 Jun 2006 at 20:07

you cheeky monkey.#
thanks for pointing out the mistake in my typing,at such a early hour.
with a hangover(honestly).
i paid £112 for it nearly a year ago.
it will go 2.9GHZ but knocked it back because of battlefield 2.

Demon[KcsF] · 18 Jun 2006 at 21:30

I paid £110 for the chip off that well known auction site.

Do you think I over paid?

And the stepping is CACJE 0546BPMW.

bestyboy · 19 Jun 2006 at 08:20

the price seems fine.
if you get the right results,it will be worth it.
good luck......
