hope this info helps, and would love to hear from yall


cheers!!!
 
did anyone else have any idea of how good this is? im just curious to hear others opinions, im buying it for deffinate and i totally trust the person im buying it off, *well amazed to see it running at 2.8 allready!*

i just like seeing other peoples outlooks,

so anyone else heard of that stepping?
 
I have that stepping - 2.85ghz :D

Phase change = 3ghz+
Water = 2.9
Air = 2.7 - 2.8+

Assuming you hae decent hardware.
 
On various 'opteron 170 stepping guides' that are found across the net...such as the link you posted. :rolleyes:

Heres a more updated version :Dual core stepping list

Also built a system with that stepping and I personally couldn't get it past 2.7 p.95 stable. Temps were a problem and probably the cause so removing the IHS may have solved it, but as it wasn't 'my' chip I wasn't gonna do that now was I ;)
