Yup, I figured I would jump on the bandwagon, albiet a little late, and throw my latest OC up on the boards for your amusement.
I picked up this 1700+ JIUHB around the same time leishi and others were frantic over their crazy overclocks . Well, until now I had been trapped on an ancient (?!?) :p Kr7A-RAID and wasnt able to get much outta my chip or my OCZ PC2700 EL rev. 3.2. I have since picked up an Abit NF7-s Rev. 2 and I must say, I didnt think I was gonna be able to push it this high. See for your self...

Its not the highest OC in the world but the FSB and memory timiings I was able to pull totally caught me by surprise.
When I get a free moment or two I plan to push the Vcore a little more and see if theres any more juice in this chip.

I thinks this ram reached it limits though. I booted up at 210 and 208, both at 2.9v vdimm and had it crap out after about 5 mins in prime95. I'm also a little weary of jumping the voltage on the vcore beyond 1.8for the sake of a few extra mhz... not to mention having to cool that OC once the weather here warms up. :p (I'm at about 45c full load, SmartFanII at full bore, in a chilly room.:cool: )

It seems pretty cozy where its at but Im sure Ill end up fiddlin around with it again.

Where are the rest of you XP1700+ Oc'ers at?? :D

okies guys, what week are those chips, cause i just picked me up a jiuhb 0312 1.6vcore default and its at 2200 and 1.8vcore right now, i am positive it can do higher but the raid on my KX7 died and both my hard drives are on the IDE chans and i dont want them ****ing up on me :| that and i think that my ram sucks too :|

paroxym
5 Jun 2003, 02:56am
My chip is a 0308 I believe, 1.6 volts as well.
Its my guess that Thrax's chip is one of the newer DLTC (1.5v) as he's runnin it pretty high for what appears to be a slightly higher vcore than what mine runs at stock.

The board made all the difference in the world for my OC'ing experience. My ram would ceiling pretty quick, being held back by my old via266 chipset.

The best there is besides the 0319 of the same type.

<b>Shameless motherboard plug:</b>
<I>Abit NF7-S 2.0 with the A1/C1 stepping is the best motherboard around.

[:] 8rda+ is scarcely available in anything but A1/A2
[:] 8rda3+ is not available with the MCP-T
[:] A7N8X doesn't reach the Abit's bus speeds

The NF7-S overclocks expertly, is stable, has excellent features, has the MCP-T, and is 95% available in A1/C1 varieties</I>

I'm considering it right now. The only problem that I'm seeing right now, is that I don't have enough money right away to put together a complete build. So I don't know if I should go ahead and pick me up a 1700+ while the prices are so low, and wait for video card prices to drop. Or should I just wait until say the 2000+ prices drop which probably want be too soon, but if I do wait then I could risk the 1700's going out of stock also. Too many decisions I tell ya.

Mine's 0312 VPMW, 1.6 VCore default (that's DUT3C right? confusing, hehe). And JIUHB of course, from Newegg last week.

I have a SLK-800 with a ~50CFM mediocre fan. I got to 2.4GHz by using a high multi and a lowish (166-175) FSB, as well as high voltage (2.2V). It's a KD7-RAID by the way. Anyway, paroxym, can you up the multi any and let off the FSB a bit? No board's top multi is 11.0...

Yeah, the multi goes up to 22 on the NF7. However, I'm crunching on a WU right now so I'm waiting for a break before I reboot this puppy and try to push her a little more.

I would have tried taking my vcore as high as 2.2 to stablize a higher clock but I'm kinda weary of doing so. What kinda of temps are you holding at load with that slk-800? I have a sk7 myself and with my SmartFanII (in addition to all four 35cfm case fans) running full speed, I can hold it down at around 44-45*C. Also, is that 2400mhz overclock stable? I had my chip clocked higher but it was choking out on f@h and prime95.

Nice! I have the same chip but XPMW instead!

Do you fold 100% problem free with that voltage? I found that this cpus get warmer that 1.6v brothers... The max I could squeeze it was 2.5Ghz@ 1.925v NOT 100% stable.

I`m now running it at 2.35Ghz @ 1.7v (though it can run at 1.65v too but once in a while it craps some gromac WU)

Thrax
5 Jun 2003, 04:08pm
Folding runs 24/7 with those temps and settings. In fact, my computer has been up consistently for as many days and hours as my sig states.

I'll push it farther when the computer crashes, or I have to turn it off to take it to a LAN party.

But right now, 1.65v, 2.33GHz and 111*F is just fine by me.


I want 230 x 11 though.

I have a Chieftec case with side & front 80mm fans (that's 2) and 2 output on the back. Also the PSU has a fan inside the case and outside.

I had about 2450MHz run for 2 days (folding) but unfortunately I came back from dinner last night and it was gone. Now I'm trying 2408MHz and crossing my fingers on stability. Temps are System 56ºC & CPU 54ºC according to Winbond - that's on the surface of the CPU, right?

Well the new system seems great so far. OCed at the moment to 1884 (11x170). So far so good, only the temps under load are currently 55 C, and after trying as high as 2Ghz, the CPU temp peaks around ~57C, and eventually BSODs.


Obviously the Areoflow isn't that great of a HSF in terms of OCing, sure is quiet though! But who knows... in 6 months or so I may get into watercooling.

Otherwise, if anyone has any ideas, please let me know!

AreoFlow does test around the same as SLK-800/900 with low CFM fans... So if you hate noise, it's pretty quite and decent for $25.

My 2400+ does 2.30 GHz w/ 1.875V @ 46C (115 F)... AeroFlow has treated me good :D

Waste of time?? :scratch:
My DUT3C is currently running (and folding) at 2.35Ghz rock solid.
I would hardly call a 900 Mhz overclock a waste of time.

As far as which is better, that would have to be the DLT3C due to running at a lower stock voltage but none the less, the OC'ing performance of the DUT3C is nothing to scoff at. Meh...

A little overview:
Palominos can take 2.1v & TBreds can take 2.0v before "random sudden death".
*(Cooling does factor in but we'll over look that for now)

It is recommended to not overvolt by more than 15% if you want to receive the original life time of the processor.

So what you're stating is..

"3 is to 5 as 8 is to 10"

Does that mean anything? No.

12 Jun 2003, 11:13pm
how do you get 5 is to 8 as 8 is to 10? im saying, 1.8v on a Tbred is 0.3v over stock, 0.3v over stock for a palomino is 2.05v thats the ONLY comparison im making.

Nick

"3 is to 5 as 8 is to 10" -- They are related because 2 is the difference in both cases.


And yes, if you add .3 v to the stock voltages, your numbers do match up.... BUT.... we want the rise to be liner... meaning you need to use percentages.

Examples:

Correct:
Palomino: 1.75v + 15% = 2.0125 v
TBred: 1.65 + 15% = 1.8975 v


Incorrect:
Palomino: 1.75 + .3 = 2.05v
TBred: 1.65 + .3 = 1.95v

Juggah0 said

Nick

With all the above... a TBred @ 1.8v is a 20% overvolt.... while a Palomino @ 2.05 is a 17% overvolt. You may say only a 3% difference, but it DOES make a difference. Also keep in mind that comparing 2 different cores shouldn't be done for any real answers... because the amount that .1v does for each core is different.

In face they all are tbredB, even tho the first one didn't state it is, but you can tell by the stepping code of JIUHB, it's a tbredB.

I got this a while ago, but my dorm at school was far to hot to see how far i could go. I'm also currently fsb limited by my ram, i need some new stuff, along with a new mobo. But alas, i am a poor college student.

AMD Athlon XP1700+ 1.47G 384K 266 BOX(JIUHB:0310WPMW/XPMW) AMD $80.00
AMD Athlon XP1700+ 1.47GHZ 384K 266 Tbred (TRAY)(JIUHB:0310XPMW) AMD $70.00
AMD Athlon XP1700+ 1.47GHZ 384K 266 Tbred B (TRAY) (JIUHB:0302) AMD $60.50
AMD Athlon XP1700+ 1.47GHZ 384K 266 Tbred B (TRAY) (JIUHB:0307) AMD $60.50

Whats the difference? I would have thought the Tbred Bs were the sweater buy...so why are the regular ones ten and twenty bucks more?

Or are they all created equal? Which is the better buy?

In face they all are tbredB, even tho the first one didn't state it is, but you can tell by the stepping code of JIUHB, it's a tbredB.

as to which is a good buy i would say go for the
AMD Athlon XP1700+ 1.47GHZ 384K 266 Tbred B (TRAY) (JIUHB:0307) AMD $60.50
it seems like the best buy for me, 0307 are also really good overclockers.

Thx, gonna order one now so I have it for the new sys gettin built in a few weeks.

On a simpler note, I was talkin to a friend about overclocking and he brought up and interesting point...I had an answer but I wasn't sure. Thought I would toss it out to the experts here.

His question essentially was, whats the difference between a 1700+ thats OC'd up to 2.2ghz and a regular 3200+ running at 2.2ghz. I know the 3200 plus has the 400mhz FSB, which is what I told him, but I also pointed out that by jacking the FSB way up on the 1700+ you may come out with a similar speed there as well...thought thats the part I wasn't sure on.

A 200mhz FSB on a DDR board comes out to 400mhz right? Is that just the ram then? Meh, I think you get the question, I just dunno what ze answer is!

The Bartons have more Cache, so they're a bit faster compared to a same speed TBred. FSB also tips the AMD PR a bit.

But to answer an overall question: what's the difference between a stock 2.0 and an overclocked 2.0 performance wise.... (only looking at MHz) .... nothing.

Difference between the 1700+ and the 3200+

1700+

Cache: 256K
fsb: 266MHz

on the Barton 3200+

Cache: 256K
fsb: 266MHz


Clutch... look again ;)


TBred 1700+:
FSB: 133MHz (266DDR)
Cache: 256K L2

Barton 3200+
FSB: 200MHz (400FSB)
Cache: 512K L2

So aside from the cache its virtually the same after you bump the FSB up to 200 or more. Thats what I figured, thats what I responded with...but I figured I'd double check it with the experienced OC maniacs before I said I was sure :)
