Opty 146 CAB2E 0546FPAW - 2.9GHz stable

003 · 01-05-2006, 08:04 AM

I am in the process of testing my CPU, and it seems to have maxed out at 2.9GHz prime stable. Now I am working on the RAM, and when I get home today I will post the rest of my results and screenshots. And I still have another 146 on the way from NCIX that is hopefully a better stepping. I'm happy

Awesome, get some screenies!

I'm impressed. Wish I could get an overclock that high!

Well it failed prime after 45 minutes with a rounding error. I think all I need to do is bump up the voltage one more notch and I've got it

Woot Woot.

Nice, so you go one of the lucky hit-or-miss CAB2E up to 2.9ghz. I have the same stepping in my 148 but i havent tried to OC it yet, but i will start this weekend.

Cool.

What voltage are you using and what are your temps?

003 · 01-05-2006, 07:40 PM

Now using 1.575v, not sure about the temps, they are not reported correctly.

FghtinIrshNvrDi · 01-05-2006, 10:45 PM

well, as long as the cooling isn't anything chincy, then I'm sure the temps are okay on it. In well circulated cases, those things hit voltage barriers before they hit temperature barriers.
