Opteron 146 CABNE 0530 APMW
Vcore: 1.475
RAM: Corsair TCCD
Cooling: Arctic Freezer 64

This chip will be coupled with my Mach II GT and Mushkin Redlines tomorrow.

Incredible results for such low voltage, you really can't beat the CABNE's, is that close to prime stable?

Priming now, I'll let you know how it goes.

You can get plenty more out of your RAM too

Yeah, the RAM is severely crippled currently. I was really going for straight CPU clocks and didn't want to overload the mem controller for the minute.

More tweaking will follow tomorrow. I'll try my TCCD sticks (which I know can do 275mhz), and my Redlines which will do 250mhz at 1.5-2-2-5.

I've just ordered a 146 off OcuK so going to whip the IHS off my 144 when it arrives to see if I can squeeze some more out of it, will let you know if it helps

Kesnel I hereby order you to sell me that CPU. Please respond forthwith or illegal action may be taken.

Darth Sidious · 23 Oct 2005 at 16:06

most are using 704-2bta with opterons but aperantly voids your warranty as its beta but if you dont want to try that then try 623-3

Minstadave · 23 Oct 2005 at 16:38

Yup I'm using the 704-2BTA looks like an excellent bios

This one looks to be a keeper I'm afraid.

I'm going to have to wait for my new PSU though before I can push past 3Ghz.

Richdog · 23 Oct 2005 at 16:56

WOO HOO!

Just sold my very hyped up CABGE on a well known auction site for £125 so can buy a 146 and not lose anything, hooray!

If anyone wants to sell their CABGE do it NOW before people find out about cheap deals like at OCUK.

Richdog · 23 Oct 2005 at 17:43

I don't call swapping tor a 146 for free messing about for nothing. And I really think it'll be a CABYE. if not i'll get a friend to get one from the USA.

tatts · 23 Oct 2005 at 17:53
