I am on the 9X multi, I cant even get 20Mhz more atm, maybe a new bios will fix it, maybe just some quality burn-ins ...

sorry for double post, but figured no one would know I posted otherwise.

I got my cpu upto 2.75 with a little bit of tweaking and burn-ins on the cpu.

hoping to get 2.8 but, getting there, will take time it seems, almost at the 1Ghz oc mark now

i told you that you could get over 2.7

are you running dual primes to check your stability?

yah, I am still trying for 2.8.

Got this after a brief session on my newly arrived 170'er:

those new stepping are really great. im stuck with a dud pretty much. you should also run that overnight to make sure its good, but so far its looking good.

good enuff for me... B)

Yet another prime:

wow nice overclock, im so jealous

All chips aren't made equally .

we need some proccessor equality laws, either i should get a cpu that can overclock to 3ghz or they can arrest Clint

lol

who says you cant get 2.8, just add some water, maybe 2.91 with compressor.

This is the highest I will go on air:

..only 1 hour..I know...also "cheating" in 10C ambient.

In the process of ordering water, then we gonna do some serious volting/clocks

I'm looking at getting an opteron 170 dual core myself and I was wonder what would be some good memory. I don't plan on going for a huge overclock as I'd like to stay with the stock cooler. From what I've read, I should get roughly 2.5 ghz fairly easy, even with the stock cooler. So far, I'm looking at getting 2 gigs of Patriot PC3200 memory that has an advertised rating of 2-3-2-5 at 2.6v. Should that work ok? I'd like to stay with Patriot as I've had really good luck with their memory.

well do u want to overclock the ram, if u dont then dont get patriot. ocz, geil, and mushkin are all great overclockers. if u dont want to overclock the ram that it doesnt matter(patriot).
