2500+ week 0323 and 0324

[OracleMan]

Are these week good for OC?

 

[Jeff7181]

My week 24 runs 2.2 Ghz on default voltage.

 

[OracleMan]

Thanks! I'll go it at MicroCenter tonight. What speed is your memory? PC2700 or PC3200?

 

[Jeff7181]

3200... PalmTreePC stuff I picked up on eBay. Runs 8-3-3-2.5 @ 200 Mhz. Not the best, but gets the job done, and $180 for 1 GB isn't a bad deal =)

Before I install my HS/F this evening, what is the number printed which shows the manufacture date etc???

 

[Jeff7181]

Don't have a digital camera?

Mine says...

AXDA2500DKV4D Y850058250476
AQXEA 0324SPCW

(bolded numbers show year and week)

All this talk about new more overclockable Bartons makes me give a Barton another shot. I had three blanks already (meaning less that 2.2 GHz on default).

 

[Jeff7181]

What week was it? Seems as though the ones after week 20 are almost guaranteed 2.2 on default. My week 7 took 1.75 volts to run 2.2

 

[loukey]

I just got a week 30. It won't go 2.2 on default voltage. It WILL do it at 1.75, but I don't want to use a noisey HSF so I think I will stay at 2.1 (where it works at default).

my first one was a bullseye

0315 2400mhz @1.75V i have not tried anything higher, but this baby screams

 

[Jeff7181]

Hmmm... maybe 2.2 on default voltage isn't as common anymore... or maybe they had a surplus of 2.2 Ghz chips and labeled them according to demand, and now that supply is gone, so they're selling the lower quality chips now.

I have a AQXEA0330

I'm hoping I have better luck than loukey! But I'll need a better HS/F before I try.

I just got my system put together this evening:

XP 2500+ 0330
8RDS+ rev 2.1
512 mb Buffalo PC3200 Winbond CH-5
20 gb Western Digital 7200 RPM
ASUS GeForce4-ti4200 128 mb
50X CDROM
Antec Lanboy Case
350 Smart Blue Power Supply
Windows 2000 loading as we speak!

I have a week 29 can only run 2.2ghz at 1.85v prime stable. I will boot to xp with 1.775v but not stable. I am getting a week 30 tonight and hope it will run better.

Off topic, but techwanabe, where did you get your 8RDA+ Rev 2.1?

Newegg... but now I know that isn't good for you since you live in CA and that means state sales tax! I grew up in CA and miss it, but at least I have the consolation of no sales tax from newegg.
