Last week I set up my Opty 165 & Ultra-D. Thought I'd share my results so far.

 

Steppig CCBWE 0551VPMW.

 

I was able to hit 2610Mhz (9 hours Prime stable, 290HTT, RAM@260Mhz 2.5-4-4-8 9/10 div) pretty easily, but it required a 1.5 vcore which made my load temps up to 53C--even with a XP-90 and Panaflo fan.

 

If I drop the HTT to 285 (2565Mhz)I can run Prime stable at 1.4v with load temps only at 43C.

 

Not sure is the extra 50Mhz is worth the temps.

 

I'm guessing that I can probably increase the HTT to 300 or so with the 1.5 vcore, but I just don't like my temps that high.

Yes, Mine actually crashed out of BF2 @ 270x10 so as you can see in my sig i dropped it to 265. I'm well chuffed with that and my max load is 44 which im happy with. It's also on 1.5V now and thats as far as im going take it. Im sure with a little fiddle ill get the 2.7 mark or extreamly close which ill do when i have the time. For now im happy with 2.65 duel core :)

see my sig

 

CCB1E for the win!

 

i had a CABGE Opteron 150 that would only do 235Mhz(2.8Ghz) for a measely 400Mhz OC and needed 1.6v to do that!

 

sold it after like a week for $300 and got my 165 and let me tell you, even at 2.7Ghz, it blows the 2.8Ghz Opty150 away

reverendrun, I just got my Opty 165 with the same ccbwe 0551 from zipzoomfly, did you by any chance get yours from them? My first Opty 165 from Monarch OEM got up to 2835, have not had the chance to play with my 0551 and still in box.
