Opteron 146 Cabye Clock

Well i still think my cpu was a bargain at £190 as its running at 2.85ghz which is more than the £750 FX57 .

Sam

Yes you sure did get a bargain, like you say the FX57 is £750 ish, and yours is faster than that. I would be happy with that too.

Yep the USA aint the best for customs tax, Does anyone know of any pc shops in Hong Kong that have websites in english as i order alot of stuff for my other hobby from HK and have never been stung yet. But still i got a cpu which i knew would do 3ghz stable and was the good stepping.

Sam

Im surprised you havent been stung ordering from HK as they are outside the EU. A friend of mine ordered a load of cheap playstation eye toy things to flog on ebay but he was stung. Ive ordered a few things from the US and the tax is annoying but sometime its the only place that has what you want.

I had a go at lowering my voltage a bit today and was able to lower it 0.025 to make it at 1.45V and its 100% stable at 2.85ghz.

Mate close down the millions of apps you have running and try again

Here is a screenshot of a super pi 1M test that i did with every app including firewall and anti virus shut down:

As you can see it didnt make much of a difference.

No it didn't

Is your RAM running in synch with the processor?

What do you mean?

I am running a 150 divider.

 

[FarFarAway]

Ah right well that'll be it then

Most peeps around here are running 1:1 or closer

So a 1:1 is 100mhz then you run your htt at 300 to get the ram back upto 200mhz?

Sam

 

[FarFarAway]

No 1:1 is running the RAM 1:1 with the HTT speed (or FSB)

So I run my RAM @ 280 - XMS runs his @ 310 etc etc

That must be some kick ass RAM, I am looking to upgrade my memory after Xmas, What do you recommend, I want 2X1GB with a nice running speed.
