Unofficial Opteron 939 Thread

[rapty]

A quick result from my opteron 148 Cabye 543.

[alex_takatu]

Here is my 24/7 oc for my cabye, I think that the V of my cpu is a lil higher, opinions? well but it compense the low V of the Dram, in 2.7 it wasnt stable, well I hope the ram trick helps someone, btw my rams are tccd's, next week Ill be trying with 300 1:1 and 320 1:1, for now I want to play FeAR and Q IV

So what would OC better an Opteron 148 or an Athlon 64 3700+ San Diego?

Can someone help me???

Can someone help me???

 

If you get a hold of a good stepping the Opteron will most likely be the better of the two...Even my crappy CABGE 150 will do 2850. Not a massive OC but nothing to complain about. My CABGE 3700 is good for 2700-2750...

Its all about the steppings. But generaly speaking the Opteron will have a higher potential OC overhead. Meaning the greatest sandy will do what 2900MHz? Whereas the best opty's will do 3100MHz. Example on air cooling.

 

I would completely and truly expect a 3700 sandy bought right now to get 2750.

 

I would e-mail around and attempt to get a hold of a good sales rep. After a lead and some correspondance, I got a gurranteed Opteron 148 CABNE 0528 before any capitol was ventured. Have patience and persistance and you got a decent shot at a CABYE 0540, which will beat the holy hell out of any 3700+.

A Very Nice run there loc.o

 

And agree with you on the Phase option .... they are a fun tool to have running and can be used 24/7, they are just not for everyone.

lol ncsa = my old school "nevada city school of the arts"

 

btw wow u got ur cpu to 3.4 amazing... good job what stepping do u have?

[ncsa]

Thanks ... it is a CABYE and 8hrs prime good too. Working on upwards, 3.45 Game stable.

Hi,

 

I'm in need of some advice, below are my system specs the vcore is at 1.425 and the vdimm at 2.8. I can get it to boot at 10x275 and it will go into windows but if i put it to 10x280 the machine will post but not get past the verifying dmi pool bit it just sits there with a blinking cursor, even if i drop the ram down on dividers it does the same, what am i doing wrong!?!?

 

Here is my bios settings if it helps:

 

FSB=275x10

LDT=x3

Dram Voltage=2.80

vcore=1.425

 

DRAM Frequency Set(Mhz)= 200

CPC = Enabled

CAS Latency(CL) = 2.5

RAS to CAS(Trcd) = 4

Min RAS# Active time(Tras) = 7

Row Precharge Time(Trp) = 4

Row Cycle Time(Trc) = 7

Row Refresh Cycle Time(Trfc) = 14

Row to Row Delay(Trrd) = 3

Write Recovery Time(Twr) = 3

Write to Read Delay(Twtr) = 2

Read to Write Delay(Trwt) = 3

Refresh Period (Tref) = 3120

Write CAS Latency(Twcl) = 1

DRAM Bank Interleave = Enabled

Skew = AUTO

Skew Value = 0

DRAM Drive Strength = Level 7

DRAM Data Drive Strength = Auto

Max Async Latency = 8ns

DRAM Response Time = Fastest

Read Preamble Time = 5ns

Idle Cycle Limit = 256

Dynamic Counter = Enabled (disable)

R/W Queue Bypass = 16x

Bypass Max = 7x

32 byte Granularity = Disable

[cliffy]

Try

Dram responce time = Normal

Skew = Decrease

Read Preamble = 5.5ns

 

failing that

 

CPC = Disabled

[dinos22]

possible issue with this setting....try Normal

DRAM Response Time = Fastest

 

 

also play with different drive strength values as well as TREF values....i would actually set it to Auto

[ZoKi]

maybe try and pump alittle more volts? 1.45-1.7
