I got my Tbred "B" chip in today, AXDA2100DUT3C AUIHB 0301 are the pertinent markings. I hurriedly got it installed in my Epox 8K3A+ (I have school tonight, I had to get it in before I left :D ). It is currently running at 13 x 166MHz @ 1.65V. It didn't POST at default voltage and I jumped immediately to 1.65V skipping 1.625V. Temp on the chip per MBM 5.2.x.x is sitting at 66C while being stressed by Prime95. I read at the overclockers.com forums that there is a bug in the 8K3A+ BIOS that causes temps to be read ~10C high so I guess my temp is very acceptable right now.

I'm very happy with my results so far. Prime95 has been running for 30 minutes so far with no crash. I'll leave it running while I'm at school, hopefully it is still cranking away when I get home. :)

Suggestions? Comments?

no, it wont' die...


doubt it'll hit 2.4 ...

there are only a very few people that have hit 2.4 that i have seen on air cooling...

be glad if you can do 2.3...


but 55ish is a lil high for me...

when i run prime.. it doesn't like temps higher than around 50C's for me...

oh well.. good luck to you

Nice OC so far Tao :)
Ive got a 2500+ coming tome tomarrow and so far 2.4ghz seems to be VERY possible.........mmmmm LOL
when you get back from school bud see where she'll top out at im willing to bet around 2.4ghz hwever one guy on the hard forum has his at like 2.5ghz

I'm back and 3 hours later Prime95 is still chugging right along. Not a glitch.

Shimmishim, remember about the temp. readout bug I talked about. The 8K3A+ is not reading correctly and it is reading high by about 10C. So my 68C is 58C in actuality and well within spec. :)

I'll test the max out another VisableAssassin, I need to break it in first.

58 is too high for me...

i refuse to run it higher than 48

just my personal preference

That's not at regular load though. How often is a CPU at 100% load? Only when running Prime95... and it was stable at that temp. Ran the torture test for 4 hours with no problems. I'm satisfied.

I'm running a 2100+ AIUHB 0303 at 166x13, 1.65V, and 37C under Prime95 torture test. Probably going to go back to 170FSB and see if I can get 12.5 or 13 out of the multi. I jumped up to 170 x 14 and it had a fit, I had to pull the CMOS battery and wipe the settings, wouldn't even boot.

good luck with that 2100. i had mine at 2.44ghz @ 1.85v on air, prime stable (slk-800 and adjustable 80mm). i'm currently trying to get my watercooling up and running, but i've had some minor setbacks.

If all goes well, I plan on getting an Nforce2 board. Thinking of getting the FIC AU11 actually (almost identical to Epox 8RDA+) or the Epox 8RDA+. The artificially high CPU temp. is actually bothering me a little. The comp. doesn't care but I do... :(

Thanks man. And btw, your sig is pretty funny. I felt that way when I had my eye exam a few weeks ago. Half of the changes the optometrist made actually didn't look any different. He got a kick out of it.

I was less than amused though. :D

I just thought of something... when I installed the CPU I didn't wash it off... I pulled it from the shipping container, put thermal compound on it, put some thermal compound on the HSF, then installed the HSF.

Should I have cleaned the CPU die off first? Is it possible that some GoogleGear order processor had their grimy hands all over the chip and my high temp. is partly due to skin oil? If I should have cleaned it first, I will clean it off tomorrow after work. If is fine then oh well...

these chips are awesome! though i would suggest a better fan/heatsink cooler is always better :)

The Coolermaster HHC-001 is a pretty decent cooler, far better than most. But I do plan on getting a big old Alpha and a quiet/moderate flow 80mm fan in the near future.

actually, when I had my 8k3a I switched over to the 2812 bios and I compared the temps for that bios and the 2815, and it overreported my temps by 15-16C...so if that applies to your temps, I say you're fine at 50C full load :)

Thanks for the comments everyone. Prime95 has been running all night long with no problems. Case amb. temp. is still 32C, the house is still at 72F but the chip is now reading a full 2C lower than it was last night. I guess the burning in has begun.

I think this chip likes to be a 2700+. :)

I tried this overclock but on an Asus A7N8X Deluxe board and Crucial PC2700 RAM. I could not get it to run Prime95 for long. It errors after some random # of test. I did a preliminary test with stock speed and it ran flawlessly for 6+ hours. Tried several BIOS settings and I can't seem to get it to run at 166MHz FSB. Anyone else with this particular board have any success with it? Or maybe point out where I might need to go from here?

For starters, here's what I've tried:

166x13@1.6v through 1.725v; memory timings set at 100%/sync and SPD
166x13@1.65v, memory set at PC2100-ish settings with 2.7v
166x12.5@1.6v
150x13@1.6v; surprisingly enough, Prime95 actually ran PAST 10 tests instead of erroring in under 10 tests like before.

Other details:
Vantec Aeroflow, AS3 applied

im hitting 2.3 on air with no probs whatsoever....i have been up to 2.4 also, but not stable

running 200x11.5 is giving me the best results

Thanks for the info. Will research it on Monday when their support lines opens again (wish I could do it on Sat but Crucial's tech hours are limited on Sat).

Well, the overclocking adventure will continue next week. I get my Nforce2 mobo (whichever one I decide on, decisions decisions...) probably on Wednesday and then I'll see what this chip can really do. I can't wait.
