I bought an opteron finally. I'm puting my current cpu into a mobo I have laying around so i can have another computer. The problem is that my new opty is PROBABLY teh sh!t, with average o/c speeds at 2.6 at 1.47 volts, BARELY! The last stepping, 0608, hits 2.8 on stock, most of the time. I feel that unless I've done some great deed, I'm gonna get shafted and get a crappy 0607 stepping proc. It would be a shame to put an unused proc onto ebay and probably LOSE money  :angry:  :angry:  :angry:



I ordered from monarch computers(friday) an Opteron 165 OEM for 270, plus shipping. The forums where i've been keeping track of the latest stepping can be found here:

Have fun with it. Post results. You should easily get up to around 2.7GHz after I give you the HyperX.

All news is good. It's a CC1BE 0610DPMW or something like that; it's a good stepping that's been known for 2.8 at stock volts. Right now, I'm at 289*9 =2605 . SuperPi 1m in 34.56 seconds-woot
