Anyone have experience with it? Found an interesting article about how able it is in overclocking, somebody else wanna try it out?

http://www.tomshardware.com/2006/05/10/dual_41_ghz_cores/

4.1Ghz from 2.66Ghz

I found it pretty interesting...

Yeah - there are a fe wposts on here about other success with it... and I think I started a thread on building a cheap OCing machine.

Does mrweasel have one? I think that was who...

I don't check the OCing forums anymore, my bad on that one. mrweasal was only getting 2.9ghz on it? That's rough. Tom must've gotten a good chip along with some excellent water cooling when he did it.

Yup dat's me Grin

I have a Zalman 9000-something on order. Stock cooling makes for crappy o/cing.

I'll update that thread when it comes in. Hopefully I can get something better than 2.9

Of course if I won that WC unit that a certain someone is giving away *winkwink* that would be nice

Apparrently the P4 D 805 is the best bang-for-the-buck CPU at the moment for O/C'er especially.... the potential for O/C'ing with that CPU is pretty impressive... provided you have the proper cooling to compensate. Wink

From the look of the common OCer's expereince (mrweasel), the Opterons still have some mighty fine OCer's that could give it a run for its money.

both of them are pretty much even (3Dmark2001 ~ 13600 w/ GF6800GS) at stock, in my experience. I dumped a 165 for the 805D

they may be even performance-wise but you still get better temps on the optys - those chips hot up like hell man - tho the conroes and the meroms seem a bit better in that regard
