I received CCBWE 0551UPMW. I oc'ed to 2.5 at 1.4v. I don't have time to tweak for higher oc.

 

[compgeek89]

Im talkin in the last day or so, your results were from the sale previous to when I ordered mine.

Whats a good fan to use on these Opterons? I think I am gonna get that 165.

I havent overclocked in a long time, is it still a locked multiplier and just increase the bus?

yes. they are top locked but open downwards.

so the 165 gives you anywhere from 4x to 9x while the 170 would give you 4x to 10x.

I ordered on the 1st and got an 0551UPMW O well, maybe its a good one.

[Robor]

The code for the 165 is expired.

 

[FlasHBurN]

Wish they would ship my 165 already.

[Mucker]

[Fallengod]

Of course. Heh. Thank monarch not me. I did order one myself as well. I wanna see if it clocks better than my 144. Ill sell whichever clocks the worst.

Also, Just fyi, monarch may be out of stock of 146's. I think ill shoot them an email because I ordered a while ago and it hasnt even shipped yet.

Funny, I dont even know, I just started upping it.

 

[sdifox]

Stupid Monarch doesn't like my CC...funny thing is 1 order went through already (bought cpu and memory before I saw the cpu deal, duh!) and shipped but the cpu order is just not happening.

 

[FlasHBurN]

I am having a problem with Monarch also. Ordered on Sunday, and it is still processing. Emailed them and have not received a response. Why is it that people like this company (other than the sometimes good prices)? I'd much rather order from zipzoomfly if the pricing is comparable.

Missed the 165 by a few hours at most. Had it in the cart at 10 on Monday night and it listed it as expired ... ARGHHHH .... and I had spent a month saving it for this. One more week (hell, one more hour) and this dual core shall be MINE. Here's hoping Monarch re-ups the code for just one more week.
