Got my Retail 1800+ from Newegg today!!!

A SF2 is definitely needed to increase this o/c.

I'll be working on that in the near future.

2.34GHz isnt bad but my xp2000 eats yours at 2.47GHz you still got lucky given the low voltage you pumped, but I hear DLT3c's hate high voltage anyway, they were built for very low volts while the DUT3c's can often tolerate 2v or even more. I doubt youd get much, if any higher overclocks but feel free to prove me wrong

You aren't Prime stable for two seconds at 2.2v at 2.47ghz...I got into Windows at 1.64v at 2.449GHZ...I'd say my CPU "eats" yours!

I'm definitely happy about my $59 investment!

Anyways, your stepping still looks decent, from what I know so far. Let's see what she can do tomorrow, especially with your God-sent RAM

btw, Mfreddio how are your case mods coming so far?

Eh, they arent really going. I need to find time and get more practice before i dive into cutting up my $90 case.

Arg, nice OC speedstream.. I find it rather dissapointing that an 1800+ can easily beat my 2500+.

Heheh, blame it on the extra cache I guess.

I'm curious as to what this thing could do in a Prometeia...

Important info: DLT3C 9545685240138 JIUHB 0333YPMW

What's the wafer number? xDUCK's thread reminded me about this little detail, but I don't remember where it is.

Lower is better, right?

*can't spell*

Last 4 digits of that long string, so yours is 138, pretty good

What's the deal with that? Mine (haven't tried it yet) is a NIUHB stepping, which is supposed to be pretty good, but the last 4 digits are 1196.....????

ouch...that portion of the string doesn't look good for you, but who knows? When are you gonna get around to testing it?

Why not (re. 'ouch')?? Gonna test after I get my new PSU and see what the ole Barton does - then I'll try the 1800+. It's still in its retail plastic - do I have willpower or what???

The last 4 digits of the CPU code are an indication of the part of the wafer that the CPU is from. The closer to 0001 the number is, the closer to the center of the wafer the cpu's silicon is from. The best formed silicon is in the center of the wafer. So - the closer to the center of the wafer the cpu's silicon is from, the better chance it has of being a good OCer. However, it's by no means a definitive indication...it only increases the likeliness. There are many other variables. Also, there might be times where the center of the wafer is NOT the best silicon.

From what I've read, those NIUHBs are multiplier locked.

That and the higher wafer number may not bode well...

Hehe, hope I'm wrong, but at least you got it for free!

**hwmicre** · 10-19-2003, 04:35 PM

Talldude: THANK you for the depth.....'course it doesn't make me feel as good as I should......

Speed: Xnay on the free-bay.....I still have to see how my CC pans out....

And what's this 'locked' BS....??

**speedyaxon** · 10-19-2003, 04:52 PM

sorry i wasn't in depth hwmicre....i thought the last 4 digits was more known about, that's all.
