The Official AMD 3700 San Diego Overclocking Thread

[TaKeN]

Well, there is an official Thread about opterons so im gonna start this one..

My friends just been down to ocuk and picked me up a CAB2E, im hoping this chip will hit 2.8 Ghz +


What clocks have people been getting, and with which steppings ??


Plz post temps, voltages FSB X Multi's Etc

 

[TaKeN]

Imagine what you could hit with water cooling

 

[TaKeN]

Ive just got my cpu, its a KAB2E 0549BPDW

I will report back later tonight

 

[TaKeN]

It did 2.6 Ghz on stock volts, but as soon as i went to 2.6 it crashed pc twice,

Ive upped the Volts to 1.475, and now its running at 2.7

Seems stable at the moment, but im going to play css for ages which should crash the pc if its unstable.

I can put 1.6 volts through this cpu and might get 3ghz, but ive heard people saying that this chips dont respond to volts

This is the cpu-z screenshot, and Sisoft Sandra Benchmark

I tried hitting over 2.6 on stock volts, but comp froze, im not sure whether it was due to me Exceeding 1000 HTT Frequency, or just because the chip doesnt like it

My Htt is set to 3 and running fine @ 2.7ghz

Stock Volts ?

 

[TaKeN]

These chips seem better than the opterons

 

[TaKeN]

Release the beast within

Basic Points, erm.

Drop the Memory to DDR 333
Set the LDT to 4 X
Up The FSB A little

 

[TaKeN]

IM Very Pleased to see everyone getting such good results from this chip

Hmm,

I got 2900 Mhz out of my cpu the other day..

But it was with 1.6 Volts.. Which i didnt like to do,, so in the end i dropped it back down to 2805 Mhz..

These chips realy do seem great value

Mine has been game stable on counter strike source for months.

Realy Great chip IMO CAB2E BTW
