opteron 146 that does 3Ghz @ default volt?

[hbui]

So i just got a stepping CAB1E 0614...Couldn't google much info on that but it does 3.0Ghz at Default 1.36Volt. This is with a typhoon. Now, this is my first AMD board so i don't know if I'm keeping things loose somewhere but i still can't believe this. my memory is currently set at 2.5,3,3,7.....this is with a value ram using a DFI infinity DF4 board. EVeryone knows the temp reading on this board is sporadic. load temp is 33...So i'll assume that it's actually 43C...are the opteron really this good or did i just hit the jackpot?

Sounds like you hit the jackpot! Keep pushing!

there are some capable of 3 ghz at stock voltage. so yes, you've hit a jackpot!

just be sure to do some more testing to make sure it's stable. just cuz it loads windows at 3 ghz doesn't mean it's stable at all at 3 ghz.

It's been running OCCT for a couple of hours now as we speak...Seems like this is a very good chip...

Be sure to dual prime it and run memtest. Congrats on the overclock.
