NEW 1700+ TB stepping..

[Dissolved]

i just got a 1700+ from newegg today, and it seems to have the newest stepping ive seen posted yet.

RIWGA 0234

Does anyone have this one yet?

 

[Tru2ya]

Interesting i havent seen that stepping yet, please let me know how it overclocks, I'll be recieving mine from newegg on wednesday so i'll let you know. Also, are you sure you didnt mistype the stepping because i cant find that stepping listed anywhere on any of the forums(maybe you mean RIRGA?)

LoL, i also tried typing RIWGA in a search engine and all i bring up is stuff on golf.

Interesting. Please let us know how it overclocks. Is it newer than the AIRGA stepping?

never heard of it man! heard of RIRGA but not RIWGA. try it and see if it clocks better then the AIUGA tbred 1800

will do tonight

They talked about the stepping in this THREAD. The guy's stepping is a week later than yours though, so there might be a difference in the performance. Their assumption is that they are 2200+ clocked down to 1700+ speeds, so hopefully they'll overclock better than the other 1700+ stepping.

No he said RIWGA stepping not RIRGA, but I think he means the RIRGA. Because i've seen a RIRGA 0234 on a 2200+ before. I think he mistyped it because I cant find any info on that on any of the forums I know and using search engines. I Also tried amd search engine and still no results.

Well it definitley doesnt look like RIRGA, but in the picture the W looks like it could be an N also.

 

[maxima88]

It's definitely a "W" since there is another "w" in the picture and that one is clearly a "w".

Let us know how it o/c. thanks.

 

[Tru2ya]

Ah i see what you mean. Cool, i hope it does overclock better.

 

[maxima88]

me too

I really wanna hit 2ghz without having to fork out the $$ for a XP2400+.

 

[Tru2ya]

Actually the new 1800+ tbreds seem to be hitting 2ghz easily, it maybe the 2400+'s underclocked. People on newegg reported hitting 2ghz just by moving the multiplier up to 15(stable).

i currpurted windows @ 12x150 1.75v.
i think its my memory as it would only do 170fsb w/ my 1600+
but im gonna juice them up and see what i can do.

And yes its a W.

 

[Tru2ya]

Thanks for the update dissolved. Try lowering the multiplier and then raising the fsb. Maybe something like 11 x 166.

Memory limit @ 170 with medium aggressive timmings w/ 1600+

So far ive Posted into windows, 1.848 12x154fsb 1.8~1.82v(jumps) and 2.91v on ddr.
im gonna have to mess with the ddr timmings, and see what i can get. When i have semi aggressive timmings i get a currpution error, but when i rasie them slower reboot the error goes away.
But it might have been Raito. i had it at 4 @ 150FSB when i got that currpution error. Went to 5Ratio and went up 4fsb, and ive been in windows for 10mins.

So im not a pro at this nor have the best hardware, but if i can get 1.95ghz on air stable in the cali heat, ill be a very happy person.

I just got mine today as well. Same stepping and date. I'm about to pop it in and test it out. I'll let yall know.

12x156fsb 1.84v
tryed 12x160, Wouldnt post bios right. Having a hard time getting the voltage higher, these chips have a lower vcore setting, So the bios gets caluated wrong, leaveing you with 1.75V max.

I have my mobo modded, But ive had to turn the pot a crap load of times to get 1.84. So ill keep trying....

You do know that the 1/5 divider won't kick in until you hit 166fsb? the reason why you may have a hard time running it at 160 is because your pci cards cant handle being that far out of spec. It looks like you been in these forums for a while(basing it on the # of posts), but I mentioned that just incase you didnt know already. Move the fsb up to 166 and set the mutliplier at 11 and see what happens or did you try that?

Not yet, like i said im still testing. im stable at 12x156 so i think i can go higher w/ voltage, or maybe trying a lower multi like you said.
