How well do the Bartons OC?!?!

I just tried OCing one of my 2 2500s in my KX7... it hit 190x12.5 @ 1.75v, and it POSTed @ 195, but threw a cmos checksum error... when I get it fixed up, I'll try it again, but even 190x12.5 is 2375MHz, and that's on a KT333 board! How fast are these things usually good for anyhow?

ALot of people have gotten them well over 200FSB with a high multi. I'm not sure exactly, you'll have to let someone else tell ya that.

I'm surprised, I thought they didn't oc too well, but I just had it POST @ 200x12.5 (2500MHz) but it froze detecting the IDE devices, altho I think that's because I'm asking the PCI stuff to do 40MHz, and the AGP to do 80, which is an awful lot... I can't wait to get my A7N8X back and try it in there... if I can get them both running @ 2500MHz, then I'll end up with a 5GHz AMD dually

Thnx... I just bought 4 160GB 8mb/7200rpm Maxtor DiamondMax 9's for it too- 2x 320GB RAID 0 arrays (the old IBM Ultrastar 10k rpm scsis are <1/2 the speed of the 80gb DiamondMax 9 ATA-133 8mb drives, so I figured it's time to upgrade) Unfortunately for right now it's stuck with a Rage 128 until I get something better for it (I need my R8500 for my A7N8X-Deluxe 'cause the R128 is AGP 2x and it won't work in it) but soon it may have a 5900 ultra or 9800 pro, and I'm thinking about 2gb of PC2700 DDR too...

Told yah!

They're the same process tech as the Tbreds, so you should get the same OCs

I concur. Also the 512mb cache is most impressive indeed
