XP1700+ JIUHB.... yet again
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 (?!?)
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.

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??

I can go faster, but the computer isn't being restarted to try. It's going until it crashes, or I have to take it to the next LAN party.
43*C/111*F full load.
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.
Clutch: Grab one and join in the fun. Those 1700's are too much of a bargain to pass up

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.
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.

//Edit* "Can I make it through a post without SP errors?! Geez."
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)
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.
Nice OCs everyone!
Post your results as soon as you have them! Good luck!
Hmm, not bad.
Also, a quick question for y'all - I upped my vcore to 1.85 yet it only shows 1.808-1.824 in Cpu-z as well as in MBM. Any idea why this is?
Thanks in advance.

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?
The weird thing is that in the bios' Health staus section it shows the vcore at 1.85.

Heh, looks pretty good to me. What kinda voltage are you putting through that chip and whats coolin' the beast?

I've forgotten over the past couple months, doesn't DLT3C mean t-bred A and DUT3C mean t-bred b?
I have a JIUCB
DUT3C means 1.6v
