Interesting....

I'm wondering if there's some magic something-or-other I'm missing, 'cos with 2.8 Ghz prime stable on default volts (mine), you'd expect better when pumping the voltage up, right?

Might try a newer BIOS or some-such (using 618-3 at the mo). I'll give the infamous 704-2BTA a go...

I'm wondering the same thing. It'll be good if when people post results if they could say which mobo and BIOS they are using. Also the RAM and the speed and latency. We can then try to work out the magic combinations !

jimbo, why is 704-2 infamous? I think using a new bios might be the last resort for me too. Currently priming at 2.7 1.65volts :(

There's a big thread on the DFI forums about it by the guy who made it - Tony (AKA BigToe). RGone and AngryGames speak very highly of it, although I have a (personal) suspicion this is because it's the best BIOS to get n00bs up and running ASAP.

Reports from users are mixed.

and finally 3G shot...hehehehe

Hey dude,

(AND EVERYONE ELSE RUNNING 144 CAB2E's), could you run MaxTcase please?

The new CPUs have a MaxTCase assigned to them individually now and rumour has it, the higher it's rated, the better. (Might be a whole pile of steaming ...., but worth a try)

Mine's only rated to 57'C and won't hit 3 Ghz (unless I'm missing a setting somewhere, but I doubt it..)

Also, ken, what BIOS are you running and what slots are you using for your memory (yellow or orange).
 
go on, you know you want to! I have to decide before tomorrow if it is going back!
Nice work btw ken1307, if I hit 3Ghz I will be one happy bunny :P

Could you 144 CAB2E owners tell me your batch numbers please? (last 4 numbers on the bottom line).

Would be interested to know which ones are clocking better.

Edit: Particularly interested in yours ken if you could take a look for me. ;)

Thanks guys. :)

Just trying to find out why some of these seem to be clocking well and others are doing badly. Mine is 0783, I'll be heading home this weekend to test it.
