Thraxz Posted July 26, 2006 Posted July 26, 2006 Thraxz, when did you get yours. And my CCBWE 0608MPMW seems to be a crappy stepping for me to. All I really want is 2.5Ghz Stable. I am at 2.39 at 1.5V Vcore and it seems to be stable, at 2.5 or 2.6 I can boot into windows but i get errors off the bat with Prime. I am running a divder to keep my ram at around 200Mhz. Maybe you guys can post pointers. I think I am probably pretty much stuck with this chip no matter what, so I might as well make the most of it. That's really rough. Mine was ordered a week ago. Credit card crap held it up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burleyboy Posted August 1, 2006 Posted August 1, 2006 I have an opteron 165 ccbwe 0607 upgw stepping that does 2.5 max Should I order one from Monarch? I would want to get an awesome stepping this time. Should I risk it or get one from flickerdown/tankguys? I would not risk it. Monarch seems to be shipping mostly ccbwe's lately. I received a ccbwe 0608mpmw and returned it unopened. You do not wan't to deal with Monarch on a return. Not only was I charged the 15% restocking fee, which I knew I would be, I was charged 15% on $310.00, not the $230.00 that was billed on my card. After a week and a half, I'm still trying to reorder using my credit from the return, to re-order an X2 4800. I couldn't even apply the credit to the order. I had to purchase the X2 4800 outright, and they will apply the credit back sometime in the next 30 days. Unbelievably slow and unsophisticated systems. If I was you I'd order somewhere you can choose your stepping. I've never used Monarch before, and unless they undercut their competition by at least 50%, I never will again.
