What was the absolute max oc your tbred did and at what voltage? There is no way a tbred is crap just cause it wont do 2.6GHz. I have pointed out to him not many tbreds to 2.47GHz that mine does

My old Asus A7N8X Deluxe booted my 2100 AIUHB DUT3C at 2500mhz, but it crashed immediately when coming into Windows.
Was vcore and cooling limited - I think the CPU could have done more.
Had my 2100+ upto 2.4ghz on my KT400 at 1.8v vcore, what can I say thats as high as the vcore would go and it would only do 2.65v`s for vdimm.:(
my 1800+ JUIHB 0306 does just a little over 2.2Ghz stable, as i type this i'm at 2.218. it will go a little higher, but it's only about 90% stable there so....
What vcore, and what FSB/multi?Quote:

Ladies and gentlemen... again... Tbird took a perfectly logical conversation between me and him, twisted the facts, and makes me look like an idiot. Here we have another rare case of "stupidism".
Anyways, he IM'ed me and kept ranting about how damn "impressive" his overclock is... and I had to shut him down and say there was nothing impressive about it; especially when there is 1700+'s floating around that can do 2.5+ GHz ;). IMO, 2.47Ghz out of a Tbred B is far from being impressive. 2.6 isn't impressive either. You know what's impressive? RARE overclocks. Like 2.8+ is impressive. TOO many people get 2.6GHz to make it impressive anymore. Just check out the AMD database over at VR-Zone Tbirdy ;). Since you consider anymore than 2.47GHz to be EXTREMELY rare ;).
OK, just to be fair: Are we talking air or water cooling? Most if not all (and I didn't even look) of the wack o/c's I see are water cooled.Quote:

Saying that, though, I think 2.5 is pretty good. BUT, it shure ain't good enough to point it out as being particularly noteworthy....

Alright.... you have a point. So to make it fair.. let's include only the air-cooled OC's. Let's change the scheme alittle. 2.6+ will be impressive... anything below will be "on par". Off the top of my head... three diffrent Tbreds come to mind that broke the 2.6GHz barrier on air. My 2100+, my 2400+... and Sapasion's 2100+ ;) :) (Im sure there is more, but I havent actually browsed the forum yet for more). Now, I know what Tbird is going to say... "the 2400+ doesn't count because the clock speed is already 2.0GHz, so it has an advantage" Or something lame like that. So here's this... why is it that Mo's 1700+ can hit 2.5+GHz? <<< This one goes for Tbird.
You know, thx for agreeing....but I'm sure you'd agree that even discussing this brings credibility to a point that really has none....Quote:

But, T-bird, I have a question: This 2.47: Can u run 24/7 with it? I do see you said 'absolute best'....
I dont think 2.4x on a XP2000 is all that impressive....
I think it would be considered average...
I always wondered how well I could overclock an XP :D
Hey Colossus, you've got PM.
I noticed... I replied :)

I agree... Tbird is putting me on blast, Christina Aguilera>>>Eminem style! :D
Big C... I recommend you test out an AMD system soon :). They are fun to just play around with. A 2500+ along with an NF7-S. Believe me, You'll be surprised at how fast they actually are :). Dont forget to slap 2k PRO on there too! :D
*lol* Eminem style!
I know they can be quick... But with my three other main setups... Do you really think a 2500 can keep up with my Intels? :D

Hey C, I have a 2500 if you wanna give it a try. PM me if your interested. I will make you a very good deal:D
"my 1800+ JUIHB 0306 does just a little over 2.2Ghz stable, as i type this i'm at 2.218. it will go a little higher, but it's only about 90% stable there so...."
Thats not too bad, maybe if you got an slk-800 you may hit 2.4GHz. I had 2.09GHz then the slk-800 got me to 2.47 :)
"Saying that, though, I think 2.5 is pretty good. BUT, it shure ain't good enough to point it out as being particularly noteworthy...."
seeing its an xp2000 and not an xp2100 I think this calls respect for the xp2000s. I dont see alot of you guys with xp2000s everyone seems to want either an xp1700 or xp2100 and recently some have gotten the xp2500
"three diffrent Tbreds come to mind that broke the 2.6GHz barrier on air. My 2100+, my 2400+... and Sapasion's 2100+"
your xp2100 did 2.62GHz in one mobo and 2.66 in another but prime95 crashed anyway(same for me) and your xp2400 wasnt as good an overclocker, I think you had it to like 2.55GHz. your xp2500 maxed out at 2.54GHz. sapasion has it to 2.58GHz I think. besides that, show me how many tbreds on air that can go past 2.3GHz, just check peoples sigs, most have around 2.2GHz........
"But, T-bird, I have a question: This 2.47: Can u run 24/7 with it? I do see you said 'absolute best'...."
never tried but she will complete 3dmark everytime, besides at 2.2v I would not want to run it at 2.47 other than to eat their rigs :)
"I dont think 2.4x on a XP2000 is all that impressive...."
then why are people spending an extra 10-15 for xp2100s? I saved that much by going xp2000 instead of xp2100 a few months back.
"Big C... I recommend you test out an AMD system soon . They are fun to just play around with. A 2500+ along with an NF7-S. Believe me, You'll be surprised at how fast they actually are"
good luck on the overclock, especially on xp1700s and xp2500s :D
I dont know why most AMD are choosing the XP 2100 over the 2000... But I never heard of the 2000 being a bad overclocker...
Now I have seen some 1700+ at 2.5 or higher... Now those are impressive... But with only 2.4x or so and not prime95 passing... I dont consider it impressive or stable :)
Try lowering the speed until you can complete 12 hours of Prime95 :)
Then that is your real overclock speed :)
There are plenty of people who can push said hardware to the breaking limits for a screen capture or a quick benchmark... But that doesnt mean it is stable.. nor impressive :)
Its like having a 3.0c and able to post at 4.5Ghz... Its not that impressive since its not even stable enough to boot up in windows!
People choose 2100+'s over 2000's because the former are AIUHB's, as opposed to the latter, which are JIUHB's. A's come from the centre of the silicon wafer, whereas J's are further on the edge. As you may know, the closer to the middle of the wafer it is, the better the chip will be. 1700+ DLT3C's are also a favourite because of their low vcore (1.5v, as opposed to the DUT3C's 1.6v).
I must have one of those rare AIUHB xp2000, otherwise id have an xp2100. I checked the cores, both were *identical* so I could not justify an extra dozen bucks for an xp2100. they had the xp1700 but it was nearly the same price as the xp2000 and it was a regular JIUHB one. as for booting up, mine is like 98% stable at 2.47
Of course, that figure was 100% pulled out of your ***, with no real basis. :DQuote:

You pump 2.2v in to your chip?! I sure hope not...Quote:

There is a world outside of Sharky Forums bro. You need to keep an open mind... you're like a freshman girl in High school, that still plays with barbies. As I've already mentioned, check the AMD OC databse from VR-Zone... and tell me how many Tbred B's you see clocked to 2.5+GHz on air! ;).

we still don't know what speed you really run the 2000+ at, in all the posts asking about that, you have conveniently left that info out.
i suspect your 2.47 gig and the 98% accuracy estimate are not happening.
where are the benchies??? how long can you run prime 95???
what speed are you running the rig day to day?, you know stuffs like that.
lots of your information is either misleading or omitted, misleading i think because you and your own 'little world thing' and omitted because you don't want us to know the actual speed your CPU is running day to day.
what is it? i can guarantee there are many waiting for these answers.
baldy:cool:
I'm hoping to hit 3GHZ on my 2700+. I was lucky enough to recieve one with monster stepping. I hit 2.5GHZ stable on watercooling, (28C idle, 32C load) but couldn't go any higher because of my mobo's crap vcore.
Prommie cooling this weekend though. *insert evil laugh*
Should this call respect for a 2000 or make me wonder why you didn't get a 2100+??Quote:

LOTS of people get 2.3 on air. From point zero, I've gotten over 2.3 on both my 2100+ and (current) Barton at 1.8 and can run 3DM, Prime95, and eveyting else until the cows come home.
