Amd Processor overclocking

What chip is cooler and the best to overclock, 1.33 or 1.4 stepping?

I'm building a new system so any help would be appreciated





MSI k7 master, motherboard

512 2100ddr memory, crucial

30gig 7200 Maxtor hd.

Creative gforce vid

soundblaster pci sound

I have heard that the 1.4 runs hotter than the 1.33.

Anyone else have some input on what steppings are good for the 1.4?

:eek:

Welcome to the Forums!!
If you look at the many posts about these 2 chips you will see that the 1.4 runs hotter and at times harder to O/C than the 1.33. You might want to get a hold of a member named Reticule-X. He has alot of experiance with these 2 chips in DDR boards. Good Luck and remember heat is your enemy!! Cooling comes first.

I'd wait for the Palomino.

Don't know about the 1.33's but I can tell you about my 1.4. It's a week 25 AYHJA-Y 1.4. Currently I have it running at +0.2V over default and at 1.61ghz. My temps with 100% CPU usage (due to that Burn6 program I picked up from train22's link) are 48C. (With an SVC Golden Gate 40)

i can't speak for the 1.4 but my 1.33 has been great with heat! it get's f#$@ing hot if you don't cool properly but it is a work horse! i have been working on my pelt mods and i accidently forgot to plug in some things (cough: the pump) and it ran for several minets at killer temps and never fryed. booted back up and cooled down to a wonderful 4 C! But you may get slightly better overclockes on a 1.4 ayhja-(?) i don't know what version of that step is the best though but mine is an ayhja-y

Okay, thanks guys, I'll get a 1.33 stepping :)))

Btw, by what I've seen posted the 1.33 can clock as high as 1.6mhz???
