opteron 146

[jd42]

Any guys in the know about overclocking in here? I'd read all the hype about certain opterons with the right architecture being able to OC to higher than an fx-57 and hence why AMD have stopped producing them commercially. I was recently offered a Opteron 146 CACJE Architecture and thought it too good an offer to turn down for a knock down price. I am currently running a 3500+ 64 in a 939 socket MB (MSI Neo2 Platinum (n-force 3) with a AC 64 Freexer, OC'd to 2.4ghz, and have so far read up that it is compatible with this mobo. Essentially what i want to know is has anyone any experience with Opterons and this monstrous overclock on air?

Many thanks

Re: opteron 146

i have seen this chip do 3 gigs on air. it all depends on your motherboard, your ram, your cooling, and your overclocking skills.

BTW: thats a great stepping you have there, if you really want to push that chip you need to read some, check out ocforums.com
