Wow!! This is one impressive little CPU! I built it for a customer, (first Barton core) and I must say that I am really impressed! I took it from the stock 1800mhz to 2000 without much trouble at all! Thats with pc2700 memory also! I am rather curious as to what it could do with better memory. The temps idle were around 33 and at load about 40, it also had a cheapo 70mm heatsink on it.....I think i may have to get myself one...Does anyone else out there have one yet??

He's right about these Bartons: I took my 2500 up to over 2GHz the first day (195fsb) and my RAM is only 2700 as well, with little or no temp changes.

If you actually got a good heatsink and fan (SLK-900 and Vantec Tornado 92mm) then you should get even higher speeds

so if i understand it right, to OC a barton, you don't need faster ram, then your mobo supports? you could even do it with slower ram?
that sounds great. also the temp management, is really impressive :-) |

I run what I call a Volcano 16 (=7+ copper core with V9 replacement fan 7+9=16).
So yeah, my cooling is pretty good. I took it right up to 195, at 1:1 with my PC2700 RAM and it ran fine. With NForce2 boards you really get the best performance by matching all your buses as best as you can. You could put PC2100 in, divide the RAM bus down, and OC your CPU, but you will see less performance gain that you might expect. At least, that is what I have read. I didn't try two different RAM speeds and everything, just kept upping the FSB until I got close to 200 (may yet get there when I'm bored one day), and then upped my AGP bus to 92 (1/2 of fsb I figure). I hit over 14k on 3dMark2001SE with that on a Ti4400 GF4 card and 512RAM on Win98SE. I think the Barton is much better than Palimino (shocker there), and from reading around, OCs with less Temp change than most T-Breds (I know the only real diff is the L2 cache). I saw 3-4C going from 166FSB to 195FSB. |

yes you can..
but if you're telling people: "look i have the newest TT V16 , it isn't even out yet"... and actually it's a v9 with tornado fan.. i think your a LAMA

Yeah, you're right, but I didn't say that, in fact I told you exactly what it was...
