Opteron 146/148/150+165/170/175 Mega Coupon Sale Again @ MONARCH

[ew915]

congrats on your 0608.
just rev the fsb up to 300 and start playing with the voltages. start slowly. the 0608 can hit 2.7 easy with almost stock voltage. i got mine to 2.83 with 1.425, still have more, but htt restricting me. some have known to hit 3ghz of course on water cooling. I just ordered another one last week, hoping to get another 0608. cant wait.

*rubs hands together like Mr. Burns* excellent...

will install when I get home tonight and post results.

I got that exact same stepping about two weeks ago. Highest I've gone with it is 2790 @ 1.45v. Highest on stock voltage was 2655. My current usage is 2600 @ 1.28v but I'm not sure if it's 24 hour dual prime stable yet. This is on a Scythe Ninja cooler.

I currently have the CPU stable at 2.7ghz@1.425 (300FSB * 9) but the temperature seems a little high (66C). I'm using a Thermalright XP-90 HSF and system temperature is around 36C/96F. I'll probably end up keeping the CPU at 2.6ghz to keep the temps under 60C.

 

[vtohthree]

that is friggin awesome, thanks for sharing guys...now I want to order again, badly...but will probably hold out..=/ (just paid the lease for an apartment..college student's budget)

 

[Shortass]

This is KILLING ME. I want to upgrade so badly from my mobile Athlon setup (my paths always find me looking into crazy OCing deals, oh how I love). But that means new mobo, video card, and I'm already looking into investing a hefty amount into the 2007WFP when a decent coupon comes around.

But the price on the 146 is cutting me so deeply. Why do I even come here? WHY ANANDTECH, WHY!?

I wonder why the temp is so high. I have mine running at 2.7 on stock fan and volts with temps around 25c.

I placed my order for my opteron 165 on 4/4 and just got mine yesterday. ccb1e 0608mpmw.

 

[ProfessorFate]

Arent you overclocking?

 

[Xpage]

yes I probably will, though I cannot recall the default warrenty from monarch for their OEM goods, I think it is 30 days or something liek that

 

[AmphibSailor]

60 days I think for the standard Monarch oem warranty. All I could afford was the 146 for $143.

Btw, is the 165 opteron coupon expired for you guys?

 

[Fallengod]

Yeah I just tried it. The 146 and 165 coupons still work.

Well...try typing in the coupon. Click on the link does nothing...

 

[isekii]

why are the Opteron 165 so expensive compared to the Intel D840 is it ?

 

[honkee]

the 165 is sexier and sex sells isekki, a lesson learned for a lifer

 

[Lucid Faia]

Are the coupons still valid? It's showing $337.67 for me.

 

[Fallengod]

Well they were 2 days ago so probably.

Conroe is going to expensive though...
It wont' fall to the price of $300 for a while and ofcourse I wouldn't know the duration it takes for the Conroe to drop in price.
