Guest Spartacus Posted December 10, 2005 Posted December 10, 2005 SOLD! This is a Retail Boxed Opteron 148 CABYE 0543 FPMW. It runs 2.9G rock stable (Memtest, Prime) and actually runs 3G fairly stable as well but I have not been able to get it Prime stable at 3G. Then again, maybe it's something I'm doing wrong with the fine-tuning.... I have a Model 150 CABCE 0512 and it hits the wall at the same exact place. Just about burned through a new tube of AS5 switching them back and forth trying to figure out which one is better. No conclusions that I could find, but I paid more for the 150 and it gives me one extra multiplier so I guess that's the one I keep. Looks like $275 is the going price for this stepping right now so that is the price. USPS Priority shipping is included. Paypal USA verified buyers only (as I am).

Indyxc Posted December 10, 2005 Posted December 10, 2005 Sorry to polute your thread, but I have the exact same stepping 148, and noticed you were running the 704-BTA bios. Did you notice any increase in stability with that bios? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Spartacus Posted December 11, 2005 Posted December 11, 2005 I've been running 704-2BTA ever since it was released. It's the best version around for most people. I haven't tried any older BIOS versions, but if they made any significant improvements I'd be really surprised. I think with better cooling (my case runs on the warm side) and a little more fine tuning, this chip would do 3G Prime stable no problem. The chip still looks brand new and is in the box ready to ship! . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
