Tbred 1700+ A Query

[phokaz]

After visiting Here I found out the nifty stuff about a proc I just acquired.

Core: Thoroughbred-A
CPU Model: 8
Stepping Code: AIUGA
Manufacture Year: 2002
Manufacture Week: 48
Production Batch: M
Batch Production Number: 0735

My question is : Is anyone currently using one of these? If so, how is it doing for you? Any pointers would be great as well. I am planning on using it with a KD7-E, and Geil PC3500 UP. Thx !

Overclockers.com CPU database

I have a 1700A that runs at 1840 Stable using 1.6V.

Anywhere from 1700 (real) to 1900 seems to be the norm for the A chips, depending of course on voltage and cooling.

Well of course You can crank up the proc all you want, if your FSB is stuck stock, whats the point. Its all about the FSB

And thx mrzed, I am looking for 200x10 by the end of this. From the database, I = worried now hehe. KD7-E max vcore = 2.35v, might take some juice.
