Tbred Steppings Thread

[BBigJ]

Now that tbreds are starting to show up in numbers, it would be nice to compile a master list of what the good steppings are and what steppings to avoid. If you have a tbred please post:
A)original speed
B)overclocked speed
C)voltage
D)motherboard you are using.
E)Stepping


Thanks.

you guys with 1700 and 1800 tbred, are you getting 2ghz on air?

[Emericana]

ya 2ghz EASY on air with only 1.725v with the AIUGA stepping which KICS ASS

[mage_x]

whats your temp?

im still contemplating whether i should get a 1800 and oc it to 2ghz or a 2400 and 2.3-2.5 come christmas time

what do you suggest?

Although I'm on watercooling now, I was getting 1950mhz at 1.7ghz on air as well. Watercooling hasn't really lowered my temps, but it has made my PC less noisy.

[ntpphong]

it'd be nice to know also with what people cool their chips. i'll post mine after i have received my mcx 462+

[specific]

check the sig:p

[Emericana]

my temp at 2020mhz w/ the tbred 1800+ is 51C load which isnt horrible at 1.8v because it puts out a lot of watts of heat (97w) but i do not have ample cooling to increase the voltage higher. however, come tuesday, assuming i have no leaks, i will have a water cooling setup so all is good :D

[Arkaine23]

A) 2400+ 2000 Mhz
B) 2224 Mhz so far...
C) 1.85v
D) Abit KX7-333R
E) AIUGB "9" 0244

Just getting off of work now after attending AMD Reality Check last night and picking this beauty up for the grand price of $0. Unlocked it at work. Will have some results in a few hours. I'll probably wind up watercooling this thing in a few weeks, but for now, it's gonna be an SK7 with 53cfm Thermaltake smartfan 1 (full-speed modded). Hoping to do about 2340 mhz, 12x195 and still be below 50C.

Edit: This chip is not nearly as hot as I thought. Even with 1.85v I'm getting about 30C for a load temp, on air. Though the ambient is 17C so maybe that explains it. It seems flakey above 2200 mhz and I can't get 1T timings to post anymore, nor can I get my FSB quite as high as I could with my palomino. Still need to test things for a few days and burn-in awhile guess...

1800+
2083MHz
1.70V
Asus A7V333 r1.2
AIUGA (I'm pretty sure anyway, forgot to look but it was in that batch Newegg had)

Sweet Jon, is it 100% stable? The 1.7v is incredible.

Been there since the day I got it, folding/crunching away without a hitch.

Should have some PC3200 somtime around Christmas so I'm going to wait for that instead of unlocking bridges for additional multipliers.

Well, that's a good start, but I found folding doesn't truly stress for stability. In the past I've folded for days only to run Toast or Prime95 for 20 minutes and the PC crashes/locks up. 3D Mark, with Toast or Prime, also makes for a good stress tester.

If you can get 2.08ghz with 1.7v then more power to you! BUt I got windows to run a lot higher than 2008mhz I'm at now at lower voltage, but when I ran my stress test it promptly failed.

[sminker]

1700+ TbredA
1800mhz
1.65vcore
AUIGA

Only at 1800 since im RAM limited with some 2x256MB Crucial PC2100 sticks.

A7N8X Deluxe
Swifty MCX-462

Gotten to 10x190 but was VERY UNSTABLE. Damn PC2100

[Lithan]

1700+ TbredA
1870mhz (Woot)
1.75vcore
Auiga
170x11=1870

38* insocket at load.
Room is frigid 18*C and fans are above where I usually keep them.

[NeoGeo]

A)2400+
B)2546 MHz
C)2.21v
D)EPoX 8k3a+
E)AIUCB 0240 "9"

Although, I run it 24/7 at 2.4GHz & 1.9V. I cringe at more than 1.9volts

2 hours of Toast along with SETI didn't do anything. Don't really see any need in trying more than that as I won't ever push it that hard anyway. All it's going to do is fold.

Hear that, and Toast for 2 hours is probably a good indication you're fine. Congrats!

Going to do a mod soon and up my voltage to 1.8 or 1.85 and go for 2Ghz.
