Warning: Bad 2100+ Chips!!! JIUHB 0308VPMW at Newegg

[Audioaficionado]

Then I'll not get the cpu at newegg.

The rest of the stuff should be OK to get though.

that's strange... in terms of 1700+'s from newegg.. i got 2 for 2 tbred b's from them...

i stopped getting 2100+'s a while so i have no idea about them...

That is what I got from Newegg the other day on an order. The thing caps at 2320, and is STABLE at 2150 or lower. I'm running an NForce2 board with cooling mods on the bridges, Corsair XMS memory, and high end watercooling. That chip never saw north of 48C (oh, did I mention it is a full 8-10C hotter than my old 1900+?), so heat isn't the limiting factor here. I'm really *****ed, and I'm going to be ordering another one in short order. Until Newegg runs out of those POS chips, I would avoid them like the plague.

It runs at speeds more than the default speed and that's bad???

/me shakes his head

 

[shimmishim]

well the thing is...

it's a JIUHB and not an AIUHB which is better...

i woouldn't blame newegg.. i'd blame amd for using their lower quality wafers for their mid range chips.... oh well!

It appears Jarthel didn't read the entire thread. A pity.

Go with the 1700+ JIUHB 0310XPMW. They are proving to be outrageous overclockers. I picked one up and it is running 2250 at 1.6V ... though if I raise the VCore any higher the computer powers off immediately after post. It appears a couple others have this issue with DLT3C processors, but it is very uncommon. If it wasn't for the voltage problem I suspect I could be pushing well over 2400-2500 Mhz.

i agree! mine runs 32c idle on cheap air cooling..

Not possible. Your motherboard is reporting the temperatures wrong, or you are keeping the computer in sub-zero temps.

There are some people here in finland who have received jiuhb 2100+'s, and they are consistently worse then the dlt3c 1700+s. they are actually similar to the dut3c processors at lower speeds.

Amd should keep their good chips for higher speeds, that would make them alot better revenew. Unfortunatly having xp1700's as the best overclockers is not very good business.
