Any AT'ers with the XP 1700+/1800+ T-Bred B's yet?

I picked up a TBred 1800+ yesterday.

The codes on the cpu is: AXDA1800DLT3C AIUGA

Is that a B or a A ?

That is an A because of the L in the DLT3C. That stands for its default voltage of 1.5v whereas the TBredB has 1.6v and a code of U. Since it seems AMD is binning the low speed TBredBs that didn't make it into the higher grade, there's not much to worry about for now.

Most people on hardforums say the the lower voltage 1.5 DLT3C's are the new "B" cores?

Since the stepping is AIUGA, that Tbred 1800+ is a Thoroughbred "A" revision. The "L" in "DLT3C" only designates what voltage the Tbred uses (L = 1.5v, U = 1.6v). There are Tbred B's (most common stepping is JIUHB) which have the "DLT3C" also.. which just means they run at 1.5v.

Amamzing overclock!😀

How the heck did you manage to get PC2100 Cruicial RAM to run at 192MHz!:Q (or is it asynch to the FSB?)

hmm, that gave me an idea
i might just run it at asynch for a while to test this processor's limits😀

This is running 192 MHz dual channel synch'ed with the FSB speed.. I ran this same memory on my first 2.4 GHz system.. and that was with the 0245 week JIUHB stepping (I ran it at 192 MHz then also.. 2 sticks of 256mb pc2100). However, that cpu required 2.0v to hit that high of a speed, so I've lowered the clock down to 2.2 GHz.

I have these crucials installed on my third 8RDA+ system, this time with an 0310 week JIUHB stepping @ 2.4 GHz. I dunno how to describe this.. since I'm using three slots, I've got a dual channel DDR + single channel on third slot? 😕

Actually now, I've backed down to 191 MHz x 12.5 multiplier for a net clock of 2.39 GHz.. still pretty good 😀
These 256mb Crucial pc2100s are quality RAM.. especially when you can get three of them running 58 MHz above spec 😉
 
Crucial PC21200 running at 190FSB is pretty much standard now. Mine purchased through a local retailer has been running at 190FSB since day 1.
Tbred 1700+ A at 1900 (190 x 10) on A7N8X dlx.
 
Hmm my old Crucial PC2100 I had which I bought in Nov 2001 wouldn't go above 152MHz CAS 2-2-2-6 ,though it would at least go to 160MHz at CAS 2.5-3-3 but that setting sucks😉
My Crucial PC2700 does 178MHz at CAS 2.5-2-2-6 ,I know it'll at least do 185MHz at 3-3-3.

Are they using the same chips on the PC2100 RAM or are you guys just lucky?😕
 
ok, i hit 2.4GHz 12x200@1.825v(actual 1.8v)😀
mem speed is set at 133MHz(2/3 setting in mobo)
looks like i'm gonna back down
i prefer running sync more than async
 
It is hit or miss at newegg for the "b" version on the 1700+. They used to sell the "B" version seperately but now they do not so you might get a "B" or you might not.

Whoah treble posting & new smilies!:Q

Nice find 🙂 ,though the price is actually £46 after VAT
Unusual for a site to show the stepping code!
 
I ordered a retail 1700+ cause I really did not plan on overclocking at all. I opened the box and I find a 0310 WPMW L3TC. From what I can gather this is one of the good overclockers. I'll post info ASAP. Probably by the end of this week. Gonna cool it with a Thermalright SK-7, I hope its good enough.

It's been a while since I post it's nice to see bgeh and shimmshim still chatting about and others I forgot to mention. I've been decommissioned for the past 6 weeks being a one handed monster........I had a computing accident moding some wiring in my case for my "B"bred system. My knife went directly into my palm saving my computer but not my flexor tendons. Anyways I had to have them reattached and have a rubberband attached going through my finger nail attaching to my wrist to work out the muscles to rebuild it and fight scar tissue. I need to get another "B" bred or I'm just going to buy a 2400+ I can get an OEM for $109 US although I thought about getting a Barton 2500+. Anyone know about the 2400+ OC at all and I was looking at getting an Antec 330W True PSU. Should I get the next step or two up or will a 330W be enough I mean will I really see any performance gain or stability from more watts?

Yeah, £50 shipped, but I got an email this morning saying it'll be Thursday now. :disgust: Must be the Hexus or AT effect....

also I see listing of three different steppings at excaliber PC for $72 holy COW for week 10 there is WPMW, XPMW, and UPMW. Now if the alphabet meant the later letter is the newer chip then the x would be the newest but that doesn't mean the best anyone have an idea what that letter means? But most importantly which is the best OC and what they OC at. I might take my chances with Newegg though they are only $50 and last time I took my chances for $52 I got a "B"Bred.
 
owy!!!

sorry to hear about your "accident"....

rumor has it that the 0310 "W"'s are doing very well... i forgot which forum it was but some guy bought 8 0310's with X and W.... the W's were all the best and most could do around 2.4-2.5 but he was using vcore's around and above 1.85
 
so....what is a reasonably priced heatsink and fan combo to cool these guys? my processor typically runs 15-20 degrees at idle warmer than the case temp on my epox 8rda+ according to mbm5.

thanks
