tcath2o Posted December 19, 2003 Posted December 19, 2003 I read here in the forums somewhere what to look for in the 1700 palomino to determine its ocing possibilities. I think it was relating to the v-core..Can anyone help? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eva_Unit_0 Posted December 19, 2003 Posted December 19, 2003 To start off with, you won't get much out of the palomino since it was the last .18 micron chip amd made. But every little bit counts, right? Anyway, you'll have to push the vcore really high (ie 1.8V +) to get the most of of them, and as such you also need very good cooling. I'd expect realistically to get 1.8Ghz, maybe a little higher with really good cooling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dignan Posted December 19, 2003 Posted December 19, 2003 Right about the 2100+ area is what you are looking at, that is when the core reached it's speed limits. My pally 1800+ is on a better OCing board but at 1.7V (stock for a pally) you can get 1834 out of it stable (11.5 x 159), but 2more on the FSB and it won't even post. Kinda funny how that works. I think if you have 2700 RAM or slacken the timing enough on 2100 you can get the same FSB, 11 x 159 = 1750. At that point you run into the problem of 1) chipset can't take it 2) core can't be pushed that far. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

EternityEight Posted December 19, 2003 Posted December 19, 2003 My 1700 pally runs @ 70*c at stock speeds... so im not going to overclock that..... cant be bothered fixing it though, cos i dont use it any more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ravix Posted December 19, 2003 Posted December 19, 2003 Sorry you got stuck with a pally  At least you got a 1700+ and not a 2000+. I'm pretty sure they'll reach the same speeds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tcath2o Posted December 21, 2003 Posted December 21, 2003 Actually,thanks to you guys responses,I did'nt get stuck with one Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xero Posted December 21, 2003 Posted December 21, 2003 i used to have a xp1800 Pali that i got up to 1650mhz... but it was HOT, and that was w/ a Volcano6Cu. either way, i found an igorant friend to trade me his xp1700 Tbred-A for my xp1800 Pali... now the same system runs @ 1800mhz w/ about 10 deg less.

Tom_m Posted December 22, 2003 Posted December 22, 2003 I couldn't get my 2000+ over 1.8ghz, not matter what I did. Then I bought some 1700+'s from newegg when they had them for $40. I was lucky enough to get 2 JIUHB's...that solved my OC problem..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tcath2o Posted December 22, 2003 Posted December 22, 2003 YEA Bingo! What is a 2JIUHB? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eva_Unit_0 Posted December 22, 2003 Posted December 22, 2003 JIUHB is that infamous stepping of 1700+ tbreds that were downgraded from 2500+ ratings...they are without a doubt the best overclocking tbreds out there. They run 200fsb without a sweat, and can usually push up to like 2.2ghz (from 1.47Ghz stock) even on stock voltage, and 2.4ghz+ on high voltages. I wish I had one.
