1800+ Tbred in. Pics and OC-Results as time goes on

maxima i noticed your temps in your sig are very good, are they typos? 19 idle 21 load on air? are you using a heatpipe of some kind or does 10c ambient make that much of a difference

Just imagine what a PROmetia can do with this thing !!!

*im still waiting for it...*

 

[Emericana]

K guys 12x167.8= 2014mhz is rock stable been runnin for like 13hours maybe more....

got my whole loop set up here is a teaser

cant wait till this is done!

Well, this thread pretty much drew the line for me and caused me to break down and get one of those 1800s from Newegg. $69 was too hard to ignore for much longer.

Can you guys tell me what PSU your running on these things. My enermax 350 can't take anymore than what I'm throwing at it now and want to see how much power tbreds consume compaired with Pally's.

At stock they should draw about 10W less, I think...

 

[youthemandan]

i am using a turbolink 420 watt PSU

 

[Emericana]

stock uses 51w right now for me overclocked uses 96w at 2020mhz.

btw gonna run prime today at 12x168=2020mhz

Emericana:

I linked to this thread as part of today's article to help show that these chips are TBredAs.

Thank you very much for that WCPUID screenshot!

 

[Emericana]

no problem! btw i got my watercooling semi setup. it is runnin but it is still gettin air bubbles out. i need to go away for a week startin tomorrow for vacation but on monday i am gonna order a new case and start my watter all over again cause it is super ghetto right now. i get the same temps w/ this as w/ my ax7 so i need to go and get a faster fan on my heatercore as well (gonna get a 85CFM aluminum one that only gives out 32dba!)

[Optimus Prime]

Im not too far behind emericana but im doing things alittle differently. Im trying to see how high i can go on my chip with the least amount of voltage. Right now im @ 1913 with a vcore of 1.66 and been crunching at 100% usage for 12 hours. My full load temps are about 37 deg C. I dont know what im going to do next but obviously it will involve 2 ghz. Any ideas?

OPrime

 

[kchip]

Got mine yesterday too!

 

[the garynator]

hmmm... would it have a higher setting if it was on a better board? Something like the at7max2, because if it would have a higher voltage setting, i might buy one. right now it shows up to like 2.5 or something.

Only if you have the type of cooling that could keep a 2.5v overclocked athlon from spontaneously combusting! lol

 

[krairach]

Water cool.
At 1.5V default on A7V8X
Can't go very far beyond this even at 1.7V max setting in BIOS.

"Just imagine what a PROmetia can do with this thing !!! "

in 2 days, I will have this chip in my prometeia for a few weeks.
I just hope I have as much luck with it as you guys have had with yours. I will have 2 set ups to test it on, a Epox 8k3a+ and a Abit KD7-Raid. both got to 2.2 or higher on the Vcore and I know the prometeia can cool it.
but I still hope I can get mine as far as you guys got yours.

 

[youthemandan]

OMG. I can't wait to see what it will do. Oh Boy this oughta be fun

 

[Grimace]

I hate you guys. I got about the same cpu and mobo as Optimus Prime, but I can't get it to be stable at any 166fsb. I going back to try later (dam job), but I'm gettin an RMA from newegg just in case. I was runnin my pally agoia 1800 at 166@10 without a single issue. This chip has made me want to cry. *pause*...whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa


Oh well.

 

[smesx1]

Dang, I'm getting the 1800 for sure now. Talk about value.
