2.8c oem SL6WJ - are they all like this?

LesterP · Jun 11, 2004

D1 chip that seems like a good one. cooled on air inside a well ventilated Shuttle XPC, I can't imagine what the chip is capable of with real cooling. a lucky chip or are yeilds on the northwoods really good now?

That's pretty sweet. Definately above average in my books.

cursor · Jun 11, 2004

Cool. My 2.8c shipped yesterday. I hope it's this stepping! Will let you know how it turns out.

Where did you buy it from?

LesterP · Jun 11, 2004

it came from newegg.

LesterP · Jun 12, 2004

the chip and ram won't stop, now 3.73ghz/1.52v, ram is doing ddr533/2.75v. i'm getting giddy.

Is it Prime-stable at 3500MHz, 1.525Vcore?
What Motherboard du have? Is it moded?

LesterP · Jun 12, 2004

it will run prime95 for an hour at 3.75ghz at 1.52v so yes it is fully stable at 3.5 - default voltage. i run the machine now at 3.65ghz full time.

this is a shuttle XPC SB61G2, intel 865 chipset. no mods on it, but case and cooling are modded a bit.

sounds like the board is the key after all the secret to OC'n is your board right?

urbancontra · Jun 13, 2004

that's crazy...
I had a d1 that wouldn't do jack...then the cpu went bad out of nowhere (maybe that's why though..hmmmm...)
Thats a really good overclock though.
maybe matching certain mobos with certain steppings does something?

Flakk · Jun 13, 2004

yeah i think P4's are getting really good overclocks standardly now because i got my 3.0c just a few weeks ago and it hit 3.72ghz with slightly over default vcore. 100% prime stable for 12 hours. And i know i could overclock more but it's on air cooling so temps are limiting it. Northwoods rock this time around

Kuroimaho · Jun 13, 2004

My 2.8C isn't as good as this one it does as well 3.5 on 1.52 but 3.6 needs 1.575 and 3.7 is 1.675 what already makes the cpu 50+ C. I think I could make it 3.65 stable somewhere in between 1.575 and 1.675 but that 50 mhz isn't that interesting at the moment it is fast enough for everything I need it for.

Private Joker · Jun 13, 2004

Yeah I dont know about the board you have, but it seems to be a pretty good "christmas"- CPU as well.

Mine crashes in Prime after about an hour @ 3500, 1.525V.

I seem to have problems recently. Because I dual Primed my rig with the setup in my sig two weeks ago for about two days. Is was stable.
Now yesterday I ran dual-Prime in background just to test some cooling improvements and it crashed after about 1:30h...
didnt test it further though. But seems strange enough.
All I changed in the two weeks was some testing how high I could run my CPU... hmm?

Just to add something, I've had prime run for 12 hours before failing

Another D1 lemon here. Overclocking is primarily luck of the draw, so feel good that you got such an outstanding chip.

Achilles17 · Jun 13, 2004

thats awsome...i hope my 3.0C will be able to OC that well...

cursor · Jun 14, 2004

Hmmm... So I have the exact same chip, it seems! I just got it popped in and am going to let it run and try to OC tomorrow.

My new Fortron 530 is rock solid. My Fortron 350 was kind of choking on my setup, but the new one is spot on!

Here's what the top of my chip says. It's got 12 caps, whatever that means. I get the first 2 lines, but the last 3 make no sense to me:

2.80Ghz/512/800 (Means 2.8C)
SL6WJ Costa Rica (stepping and fab)
3416A101 (?)
4416A871 (?)
0563 (?)
