[Pothead]

CHJF, whats the avg oc on b chips, that you know?

 

[mamisano]

Look at the pic of the CPU...it is a 'B'

 

[chizow]

AWESOME!!! Just ordered mine

I was going to order that 2100+ b/c of Keyeye's post over in CPU/OCing. Can't add it to cart though at $92. The product number of DUT3C which are in the part # and in the picture indicate it is a T-bred B. Green PCB.

The 1700+ is also DUT3C with newer stepping numbers indicating it is brand spanking new (look at the week, its like the last week of December). Also, CHJF confirmed it is on a Green PCB, which the B's have been coming on.

Here's a link to The tried and tested Overclockers article on How to Tell them apart..

Again, the 2000+ and 2100+ DUT3C's have a chance to be either A or B, but the markings on the 2100+ at Newegg show it is clearly a T-bred B. The 1700+ and 1800+ T-breds with DUT3C can ONLY be a T-bred B, as DLT3C are T-bred As.....

I should have mine on Monday, for the same price as the 2100+ I could've ordered two!!!

I have a K7S5A running an old Tbird 1GHz (I've had it for like 1.5 years now) and I'm thinking about upgrading the CPU. I haven't paid any attention to CPU news for like a year--I know Athlon XP came out (Thoroughbred?) and now I think Bartons are coming to market (damn, haven't looked at a roadmap in awhile!) What should I get? Should I even be worried about overclocking on the K7S5A (horrible mobo for OC'ers--even with CheepoBios.)

 

[pillage2001]

One question, how do you SEE a tbred B? I know they're thicker but can you actually see it??

Report!! REPORt!!!

I ordered on 1-9-03 and mine is due on Tuesday. I'll also report after receipt.

 

[Pothead]

check the other thread, i posted it there

 

[MrMaster]

The extra cache on the Bartons is suppose to make a big difference.

But like everyone says "Why wait for the next new thing? There is always something new coming down the pipe."

I have a K7s5a in my main system. Think I am going to put that in my spare system and get a tbred B with an nforce2. Have a 1600+ right now in it.

 

[chizow]

man, just finished reading through some posts over at overclockers.com...these don't seem to be doing much better than the A's, even though CHJF's stepping is much newer. I'm gonna get a 2100+ if it becomes available instead (and cancel my 1700+), as its stepping is much close to the 2400+ chips. I don't need two decent OCing 1700+'s I need one monster OCing one

What all the hype with the Bs? I have a Tbred 1800 A that does 2005 Mhz stable, dont think a Bwill do much better on Air cooling.

Nah, definitely a great heads-up CHJF!!!

Mustanggt T-bred B's have been highly anticipated at lower PR ratings in the hopes OC's similar to other T-bred B's, ie 2400+ PR and better. Yeah its nice that a T-bred A will get to 2ghz, but the T-bred B's currently available are hitting 2.2-2.4ghz no sweat on AIR. Extreme cooling has gotten them close to 3ghz.

Btw, I went ahead and ordered the 2100+, I already have a T-bred A, and if early reports are true, even a 100-200mhz increase over my current OC of 1.825ghz won't justify buying another XP....I want 2.2ghz at least!!!
